Erythropoietin receptor expression in human melanoma cells
1 Oct 2000
Abstract excerpt
Erythropoietin is well known for its role in the control of erythropoiesis, where it acts by binding to its cognate receptor (EpoR) on the surface of erythroid progenitor cells. Here we present the novel finding that the EpoR is also expressed in cells of the melanocytic lineage. It is expressed in transformed cell lines established from normal melanocytes and also in established human melanoma cell lines derived...
