Hormonal Modulation of Erythropoiesis In Vitro

  • Chapter

Abstract

Hormonal modulation of cell growth and differentiation is a fundamental mechanism of intercellular communication and an invariable accompaniment of multicellular organization in both plants and animals. Because of the importance of hormones in mammalian physiology, the study of their interaction at the cellular level constitutes a substantial proportion of investigations in the field of cell biology. The role of humoral factors in the regulation of blood cell production is widely appreciated. Since the discovery of erythropoietin as the major regulator of erythropoiesis, a wide body of knowledge has developed concerning the modulation of red cell production by this hormone under physiological and abnormal circumstances.1 Erythropoietin is the primary and specific regulator of erythropoiesis; however, other hormones have important effects on red cell production.2
