Abstract excerpt
Resistance to recombinant human erythropoietin (Epo) occurs in a small proportion of hemodialysis (HD) patients. In this study we investigated the relationship between T-cell phenotype (using flow cytometry), T-cell function (by measuring in vitro cytokine production) and responsiveness to Epo in HD patients and to compare the results with those from healthy controls. T-cell phenotypes were assessed and T-cell...
