|
FUNCTION
|
Erythropoietin is the principal hormone involved in the regulation
of erythrocyte differentiation
and the maintenance of a physiological level of circulating erythrocyte
mass.
|
SUBCELLULAR
LOCATION
|
Secreted protein.
|
TISSUE
SPECIFICITY
|
Produced by kidney or liver of adult mammals and by liver of
fetal or neonatal mammals.
|
PHARMACEUTICAL
|
Used for the treatment of anemia. Available under the names
Epogen (Amgen), Epogin (Chugai), Epomax (Elanex), Eprex (Janssen-Cilag),
NeoRecormon or Recormon (Roche), and Procrit (Ortho Biotech). Variations in
the glycosylation pattern of EPO distinguishes these products. Epogen,
Epogin, Eprex and Procrit are generically known as epoetin alfa,
NeoRecormon and Recormon as epoetin beta and Epomax as epoetin omega.
|
SIMILARITY
|
Belongs to the EPO/TPO family.
