Erythropoietin is known for treatment of anemia to increase erythrocyte production. Additionally, animal models demonstrate receptor mediated erythropoietin metabolic and stress response including protective activity in brain, cardiovasculature, skeletal muscle, and obesity, suggesting the therapeutic potential of erythropoietin beyond erythropoiesis.
