Nonhematopoietic Variants of Erythropoietin in Ischemic Stroke: Need for Step-Wise Proof-of-Concept Studies by Dirk M. Hermann

“…In view of the potential clinical use of Neuro-EPO, stringent proof-of-concept studies are urgently needed to define (1) how intranasally delivered Neuro-EPO reaches the brain, (2) which concentrations are achieved in the ischemic and nonischemic brain tissue of rodents and nonhuman primates, and (3) which are the mechanisms via which Neuro-EPO protects from injury. Only with such information should decisions be made whether intranasal Neuro-EPO may be evaluated in human patients.…”

Primary MRSA Myositis Mimicking Septic Arthritis by Mohammad Abu-Abaa, Amy Pulikeyil, Hassaan Arshad, Daniel Goldsmith
