Erythropoietin in Cerebrospinal Fluid: Age-related Reference Values and Relevance in Neurological Disease

摘要

We aimed to establish age-related reference values for Erythropoietin (EPO) in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and to evaluate concentrations in neurological diseases. CSF and serum EPO was measured in controls with tension-type headache (CTTH), in patients with ALS, dementia and depression using ELISA technique.
