Popis: Radioimmunoassay of erythropoietin (epo) was performed upon serum samples and kidney extracts from rats that received intrarenal injections of nickel subsulfide (Ni/sub 3/S/sub 2/, 20 mg/rat). Serum epo concentrations were significantly increased from 1 to 4 weeks after Ni/sub 3/S/sub 2/ injection; the highest values occurred at 3 weeks, when serum epo in 5 Ni/sub 3/S/sub 2/-treated rats averaged 230 mU/ml (range = 94 - 370 mU/ml); for comparison, serum epo in 21 vehicle-treated controls averaged 19 mU/ml (range =
