Molecular Insights into the Oxygen-Sensing Pathway and Erythropoietin Expression Regulation in Erythropoiesis
30 Jun 2021
Abstract excerpt
Erythropoiesis is regulated by several factors, including the oxygen-sensing pathway as the main regulator of erythropoietin (EPO) synthesis in the kidney. The release of EPO from the kidney and its binding to the EPO receptor (EPOR) on erythrocyte progenitor cells in the bone marrow results in increased erythropoiesis. Any imbalance in these homeostatic mechanisms can lead to dysregulated erythropoiesis and...
