Abstract
The erythropoietin receptor (EPOR) is crucial for promoting the survival, proliferation, and differentiation of mammalian erythroid progenitors [1]. Differentiation from colony-forming units-erythroid (CFU-E) to late basophilic erythroblasts is highly EPO dependent, whereas differentiation beyond this stage is no longer dependent on EPO, but requires adhesion of the cells to a fibronectin matrix, through α4β1 integrin [2].
