Abstract
Erythropoietin (EPO) is a hormone produced by the kidney. Erythropoietin promotes the formation of red blood cells by the bone marrow. The erythropoietin hormone level can be detected and measured in the blood (the EPO test). Measurement of the blood erythropoietin level can be used to detect certain medical conditions. Erythropoietin can be synthesized and used as a treatment of some forms of anemia. Haematopoietin or haemopoietin, it is produced by interstitial fibroblasts in the kidney in close association with peritubular capillary and proximal convoluted tubule. It is also produced in perisinusoidal cells in the liver. While liver production predominates in the fetal and perinatal period, renal production is predominant during adulthood. The primary role of erythropoietin is an essential hormone for red blood cell production. Without it, definitive erythropoiesis does not take place. Renal blood flow and glomerular filtration increase by 30-50%, and because erythropoietin is of renal origin, EPO concentration has been proved to increase 2-4-folds in the course of pregnancy and plateau is achieved after 20 weeks during the second trimester of pregnancy.
