Figure 3From: Evaluation of erythroblast macrophage protein related to erythroblastic islands in patients with hematopoietic stem cell transplantationEmp expression after EPO treatment in bone marrow. (A). The bone marrow island in one of 16 patients treated with EPO was shown under 100× (a), 400× (b), and 1,000 × (c) magnification. The larger arrow pointed to the macrophage and the smaller ones indicated erythroblasts. (B) The mean gray-scale ratio of Emp to β-actin protein (MGREAp) in groups without EPO treatment, or with EPO treatment for 30 and 90 days. These data are representative of three independent experiments. n = 3. *P < 0.05.Back to article page
