Abstract:
PURPOSE:Although erythropoietin (EPO) is known to express angiogenic and cardioprotective effects, it also induces hypertension, polycythemia, and platelet activation, which may cause serious adverse effects in patients with cardiovascular diseases. We compared the angiogenic effects of EPO and its nonerythropoietic derivative, asialo-EPO (AEPO). METHODS:Lower limb ischemia was induced in ICR and C57/BL mice. Mice were injected intramuscularly with 2 μg/kg of EPO derivatives for 6 or 7 days. To assess biological differences, the tissue affinity of both EPO derivatives was analyzed in vitro using heparin affinity column chromatography. Tissue affinity was also analyzed in vivo using an intramuscular pharmacokinetic study. RESULTS:The survival of ischemic legs was better in the AEPO group than that in the EPO group (5/13 = 38.5 % vs 1/13 = 7.7 %, p < 0.05), and an increase in regenerated vessels was observed in the AEPO group, but not in the EPO group in ICR mice. Vessel/muscle ratios in control, EPO, and AEPO groups were 0.50 ± 0.34, 0.61 ± 0.32, and 2.83 ± 1.13, respectively (p < 0.0001). On the other hand, regenerated vessels were observed in both EPO and AEPO groups (p < 0.001) in C57/BL mice. AEPO, but not EPO, expressed heparin affinity in vitro. Intramuscularly injected EPO gradually decreased in muscle tissue, while AEPO was maintained at 2.5 ng/muscle for 1 day after several hours of a rapid clearance phase in vivo. CONCLUSIONS:AEPO exerts stronger angiogenic effects than those of EPO presumably via its tissue affinity. Administration of AEPO is a promising option for the treatment of patients with critical limb ischemia.
