Summary

In vitro active asialo-erythropoietin has no effect on hemesynthesis in vivo. Asialo-glycophorin induces a very low 59Fe-uptake rate in heme in exhypoxic polycythemic mice. The combination of asialo-erythropoietin and asialo-glycophorin or asialo-fetuin induced an activation comparable to the activation by native erythropoietin. Obviously the combination of asialo-erythropoietin and tested glycoproteins influence the activity of erythropoiesis-stimulating capacity of asialo-erythropoietin.
