In mouse with posttransfusion polycytemia, depression of erythropoiesis suggests that, in response to erythrocytes transfusion, not only the differentiation of erythropoietin-sensitive cells is interrupted (cessation of inflow of the labelled erythrocytes into the circulation on the 8th day), but the proligeration of differentiated erythroid precursors is also inhibited (fall of amount of labelled erythrocytes during first days). This was corroborated by analysis of the experimental data with the aid of mathematical model of erythropoiesis. The model revealed that, in posttransfusion polycytemia, division of 40 percent of all divisionable erythroid precursors was halted.

Article Synopsis
  • Erythroblastic islands in bone marrow are essential for the production of red blood cells (erythropoiesis) and consist of specialized cells called erythrokariocytes and macrophages.
  • The functional status of these cells was analyzed by measuring ribonucleoprotein content using the Brashe reaction.
  • Conditions like acute blood loss and post-transfusion polycythemia increase ribonucleoprotein levels in both erythrokariocytes and macrophages in the bone marrow of rats.

The properties of early (BFUen) and late (CFUen) erythropoietin-independent progenitors were studied in bone marrow plasma clot cultures of mice. Syngeneic serum was used as a stimulant of colony formation. It was revealed that serum from polycytemic mice did not alter the efficacy of cloning the erythroid progenitors.

The oxygen metabolism (pO2, the constant of the oxygen rate consumption, the coefficient of the oxygen distribution), the activity of oxid-reduced and hydrolytic enzymes, the blood supply of the kidney cortex and medulla, were recorded. These data were compared with the erythropoietin activity of plasma in the rats with phenylhydrazine anemia and posttransfusion polycytemia. An obvious reverse interrelationship existed between plasma erythropoietin activity and value of pO2 and blood supply of the cortex.

The activity of hexokinase, glucose-6-phosphoric dehydrogenase, lactic dehydrogenase, succinic dehydrogenase, acid and alkaline phosphatases was determined in the rat kidney tissue with phenylhydrazine anemia and posttransfusion polycytemia. The blood supply of the cortical and medullary layers of the kidneys was studied at the same time. The purpose of this work was to ascertain possible connections between the changes in the activity of the enzymes under study with the renal erythropoietin producing function of the kidneys.
