Detection of erythropoietin in exhaled breath condensate of nonhypoxic subjects using a multiplex bead array.

abstract：:The development of an acidic tissue environment is a hallmark of a variety of inflammatory processes and solid tumors. However, little attention has been paid so far to analyze the influence exerted by extracellular pH on the immune response. Tissue acidosis (pH 6.0 to 7.0) is usually associated with the course of inf...
