Stimulation of Erythropoiesis in Plethoric Mice by Prostaglandins and Its Inhibition by Antierythropoietin

Abstract

Prostaglandins of the E series stimulated erythropoiesis in the plethoric mouse, whereas prostaglandin F2α was inactive. The erythropoietic stimulation was erythropoietin dependent, since it did not occur in antierythropoietin-injected mice.
