The non‐haematopoietic biological effects of erythropoietin
Open accessAbstract
Summary: In the haematopoietic system, the principal function of erythropoietin (Epo) is the regulation of red blood cell production, mediated by its specific cell surface receptor (EpoR). Following the cloning of the Epo gene (EPO) and characterization of the selective haematopoietic action of Epo in erythroid lineage cells, recombinant Epo forms (epoetin‐alfa, epoetin‐beta and the long‐acting analogue darbepoetin‐alfa) have been widely used for treatment of anaemia in chronic kidney disease and chemotherapy‐induced anaemia in cancer patients. Ubiquitous EpoR expression in non‐erythroid cells has been associated with the discovery of diverse biological functions for Epo in non‐haematopoietic tissues. During development, Epo–EpoR signalling is required not only for fetal liver erythropoiesis, but also for embryonic angiogenesis and brain development. A series of recent studies suggest that endogenous Epo–EpoR signalling contributes to wound healing responses, physiological and pathological angiogenesis, and the body’s innate response to injury in the brain and heart. Epo and its novel derivatives have emerged as major tissue‐protective cytokines that are being investigated in the first human studies involving neurological and cardiovascular diseases. This review focuses on the scientific evidence documenting the biological effects of Epo in non‐haematopoietic tissues and discusses potential future applications of Epo and its derivatives in the clinic.

In the citing paper
“Erythropoietin was originally recognized via its role in erythropoiesis [2145-2147] (hence its name, of course), but it has become evident that it has many other roles, and in particular it is observed phenomenologically that erythropoietin (and non-erthyropoetic derivatives) is protective in a number of inflammatory conditions that accompany many diseases such as those listed above [940,942,2148-”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
