EPO (Erythropoietin)
Erythropoietin (EPO) is a naturally occurring glycoprotein hormone responsible for regulating red blood cell production in the body. It is primarily produced by the kidneys in response to low oxygen levels in the blood.
In research settings, EPO is studied for its role in stimulating erythropoiesis (the production of red blood cells), which increases the oxygen-carrying capacity of blood. Because of this mechanism, it has been investigated in areas related to anemia, oxygen transport, and endurance physiology.
Beyond red blood cell production, EPO has also been examined in experimental research for its potential involvement in tissue protection and cellular survival pathways.
Research areas include:
• Red blood cell production
• Oxygen transport mechanisms
• Anemia-related models
• Cellular protective pathways
