Summary:
This second edition is a one-source guide to current information about red blood cell physiology and the action of native and recombinant human erythropoietic factors. Topics in the fields of erythropoiesis, recombinant protein discovery and production, treatment of patients with anemia, and abuse by certain athletes who wish to improve performance are covered. The newest theories in erythropoiesis (receptors, signaling), clearance, manufacturing, new formulations, and clinical research are discussed.
This book is of interest to researchers and clinical investigators in academia and biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies, to clinical research associates, clinical monitors, and physician investigators.
