Abstract

CONSIDERABLE evidence has accumulated in recent years that supports the concept of a humoral component as part of the mechanism for control of erythropoiesis. The humoral agent has been termed erythropoietin or erythropoietic stimulating factor, and has been obtained from plasma and urine of various anaemic animals and from urine of patients with various haematological disorders. Erythropoietin does not appear to be species specific; thus, human, rabbit and sheep erythropoietin stimulate erythropoiesis in the mouse, rat and rabbit.
