Obligatory role of Schwann cell‐specific erythropoietin receptors in erythropoietin‐induced functional recovery and neurogenic muscle atrophy after nerve injury
Abstract
Erythropoietin (EPO) promotes myelination and functional recovery in rodent peripheral nerve injury (PNI). While EPO receptors (EpoR) are present in Schwann cells, the role of EpoR in PNI recovery is unknown because of the lack of EpoR antagonists or Schwann cell‐specific EpoR knockout animals.
