2 Figure 1 Diagram of Targets and Possible Targets Responsive to Action(s) of Erythropoietin The originally described action of erythropoietin was on enhancing proliferation and survival of cells within the erythroid system, with one target for erythropoiesis (production of red blood cells) being the erythroid progenitor cell (defined functionally as a burst forming unit-erythroid [BFU-E]) (Shaheen and Broxmeyer, 2009). Recently, other targets of erythropoietin have been reported (Shaheen and Broxmeyer, 2009; Nairz et al., 2011). Immunity  , 6-7DOI: ( /j.immuni ) Copyright © 2011 Elsevier Inc. Terms and Conditions
