  • Title: [Effect of hyperoxia on erythropoietin biogenesis in the "endocrine" kidney model].
    Author: Morshchakova EF, Kalacheva NM, Pavlov AD.
    Journal: Biull Eksp Biol Med; 1980 Aug; 90(8):145-6. PubMed ID: 6157435.
    Abstract:
    The erythropoietin plasma level and RNA synthesis in both kidneys were studied in rats with the H. Selye "endocrine" kidney under 4-hour hyperoxia. It was shown that a short period of hyperoxia leads to a 2-fold decrease in erythropoietin plasma level and to the fall of RNA synthesis in the "endocrine" and intact kidneys. From the evidence obtained it is concluded that hyperoxia inhibits erythropoietin production in the kidneys. Changes in high-polymeric RNA synthesis suggest that DNA-dependent RNA synthesis is one of the mechanisms of the hormone biogenesis.
