BACKGROUND The association between hemoglobin (Hb) levels and mortality in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) remains controversial. The purpose of this study was to examine the mortality among STEMI patients with anemia or erythrocytosis, and further establish the relationship between mortality and the increment of Hb level. METHODS Between 2006 and 2012, 951 co...
Erythropoiesis must be tightly balanced to guarantee adequate oxygen delivery to all tissues in the body. This process relies predominantly on the hormone erythropoietin (EPO) and its transcription factor hypoxia inducible factor (HIF). Accumulating evidence suggests that oxygen-sensitive prolyl hydroxylases (PHDs) are important regulators of this entire system. Here, we describe a novel mouse ...
Five nickel compounds were adm inistered to rats by intrarenal (ir ) injec tion to assess the relative efficacies of the compounds for induction of erythrocytosis, based upon measurements of blood packed cell volume (PCV) at intervals from one to six months after the injection. Nickel subsul fide (aN i3S2) was the most potent inducer of erythrocytosis, followed by crystalline nickel monosulfi...
Rats and guinea pigs developed pronounced erythrocytosis at one to four months after unilateral intrarenal (ir) injection of nickel subsulfide (Ni3S2). For example, at two months after ir administration of Ni3S2 (5 mg) to rats, blood hematocrit values averaged 70 +/- 3 percent (p less than 0.001 vs. 48 4/- 2 in controls); at two months after ir administration of Ni3S2 (20 mg) to guniea pigs, bl...
Excessive erythrocytosis (EE) is the hallmark of chronic mountain sickness (CMS), a prevalent syndrome in high-altitude Andean populations. Although hypoxemia represents its underlying stimulus, why some individuals develop EE despite having altitude-normal blood erythropoietin (Epo) concentration is still unclear. A soluble form of the Epo receptor (sEpoR) has been identified in human blood an...
Severe elevation of red blood cell number is often associated with hypertension and thromboembolism resulting in severe cardiovascular complications. However, some individuals such as high altitude dwellers cope well with an increased hematocrit level. We analyzed adaptive mechanisms to excessive erythrocytosis in our transgenic (tg) mice that, due to hypoxia-independent erythropoietin (Epo) ov...
Clinical syndrome of refractory secondary hypertension, renal artery stenosis and secondary erythrocytosis could occur in the same patient. We report a rare case of refractory secondary hypertension, renal artery stenosis and primary erythrocytosis as an expression of polycythaemia rubra vera (PV) and suggest that erythrocytosis in a hypertensive renovascular occlusive disease may be primary du...
In the last few years, genetic and functional studies have provided important insight on the pathophysiology of excessive erythrocytosis (EE), the main sign of Chronic Mountain Sickness (CMS). The recent finding of the association of the CMS phenotype with a single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in the Sentrin-specific Protease 1 (SENP1) gene, and its differential expression pattern in Andean hi...
BACKGROUND Alterations in hematology, especially erythroid changes, may be involved in acute mountain sickness (AMS) at high altitude. This study aimed to identify the relationship between excessive erythrocytosis and AMS following different durations of high-altitude exposure. METHODS A total of 692 healthy young Chinese men were recruited for the study in June and July of 2012 and were divi...
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES The diagnosis of polycythemia vera (PV) is based on clinical and biological criteria defined by either the Polycythemia Vera Study Group (PVSG) or the World Health Organization (WHO). Both the PVSG and WHO PV criteria have proved helpful and are extensively used, yet diagnostic strategies and scheduling of biological investigations vary. We assessed the value of measur...
