Amino acids and keto acids in the treatment of chronic renal failure.

abstract：:Renal anemia is the result of reduced erythropoietin (EPO) biosynthesis in the diseased kidney and also in part the result of a reduced life span of red blood cells (RBCs). An increase in density and a decrease in enzyme equipment (aspartate aminotransferase; GOT) of RBCs reflect cell age. In the following study, the ...
