| Reference | Calvillo L, Latini R, Kajstura J, Leri A, Anversa P, Ghezzi P, Salio M, Cerami A, Brines M. Recombinant human erythropoietin protects the myocardium from ischemia-reperfusion injury and promotes beneficial remodeling. Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A. 2003 Apr 15 100(8):4802-6. p.4805 left column top paragraphPubMed ID12663857 |
| Method | Abstract:"[Investigators] have assessed the potential protective role of EPO [Erythropoietin] in vitro with adult rat cardiomyocytes, and in vivo in a rat model of myocardial infarction with reperfusion." |
| Comments | P.4805 left column top paragraph: "...cardiomyocyte volume normalized for nuclear density increased nearly 3-fold in the vehicle group (15.6±0.5×10^3µm^3 in sham to 45.0±0.6×10^3µm^3 in vehicle) but less than twice (27.0±0.2×10^3µm^3 P<0.05 vs. vehicle) in the rhEPO [recombinant human erythropoietin] group." The myocyte data in this paper is for Male Sprague–Dawley rats |
