Specificity
This antibody recognises erythropoietin, a secreted protein belonging to the EPO/TPO family and also known as EPO or hematopoietin.Erythropoietin is a hormone secreted in adult mammals primarily from the kidney, and to a lesser extent the liver. In the fetus, EPO is secreted from the liver. EPO functions as a regulatory cytokine in the differentiation of erythrocytes.
