Journal ArticleDOI
Measurement of Cutaneous Inflammation: Estimation of Neutrophil Content with an Enzyme Marker
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that MPO can be used as a marker for skin neutrophil content: it is recoverable from skin in soluble form, and is directly related to neutrophIL number.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cellular and Extracellular Myeloperoxidase in Pyogenic Inflammation
TL;DR: Data demonstrate that functioning neutrophils can lose approximately half of their MPO, and MPO appears in the extracellular fluid in active form where it is available to participate in a variety of physiologic processes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Erythropoietin and erythropoietin receptor in the developing human central nervous system.
TL;DR: Protein and mRNA for Epo and its receptor are expressed by human neurons and glial cells in spinal cord and brain during fetal development and these receptors appear to have a neuroprotective effect in conditions of hypoxia.
Journal ArticleDOI
Tissue distribution of erythropoietin and erythropoietin receptor in the developing human fetus
TL;DR: The distribution of Epo and its receptor is more widespread in the developing human than was initially postulated, leading us to speculate that Epo acts in concert with somatic growth and development factors during this period of fetal development.
Journal ArticleDOI
