OBJECTIVE: To clarify whether erythropoietin (EPO) could substitute for the serum
component in cultured retinal neurocytes suffering from serum withdrawal. METHODS: The …

Purpose: Erythropoietin (EPO), known for its role in erythroid cell differentiation, has been
suggested to have a neuroprotective effect on retinal neurons. The aim of the current study …

Purpose: Erythropoietin (Epo) has been reported to protect not only erythroid progenitors but
also neurons from apoptosis. Because retinal ganglion cell (RGC) death is one of the …

Purpose: Erythropoietin (Epo) is recognized for its central role in differentiation and
proliferation of erythroid precursor cells. Nevertheless, recent studies reported that Epo also …

Objective To clarify the effect of erythropoietin (EPO) on neurite outgrowth of the cultured
retinal neurocytes, and investigate whether EPO might potentially be beneficial in protecting …

Background Erythropoietin (EPO) has a protective effect on retinal neurons in many retinal
diseases, but regarding the effect of EPO on apoptosis of retinal photoreceptor cells in …

Erythropoietin receptor (EpoR) is expressed in the central nervous system (CNS), however,
no clear consensus has been obtained whether Epo acts as a prosurvival factor in neurons …

purpose. Erythropoietin (EPO) modulates erythropoiesis by inhibiting apoptosis in
erythrocyte progenitors. Recently, EPO has been shown to be protective in experimental …

Purpose: The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of supplemental erythropoietin
(EPO) on its receptor (EPOR) and signal transduction pathways in rat model of retinal …

Purpose To elucidate the safety and efficacy of exogenous erythropoietin (EPO) for the
protection of photoreceptor cells in a rat model of retinal detachment (RD). Methods …
