Age-dependent astroglial vulnerability to hypoxia and glutamate: the role for erythropoietin.

Age-dependent astroglial vulnerability to hypoxia and glutamate: the role for erythropoietin.

Extracellular accumulation of toxic concentrations of glutamate (Glu) is a hallmark of many neurodegenerative diseases, often accompanied by hypoxia and impaired metabolism of this neuromediator. To address the question whether the multifunctional neuroprotective action of erythropoietin (EPO) exten...
