Abstract

Objective: This experimental study examined the effect of erythropoietin (Epo) in rat model and particularly in an ischemia-reperfusion (IR) protocol. The effect of that molecule was studied biochemically using blood mean creatine kinase MB (CK-MB) levels.

Materials and methods: 40 rats of mean weight 247.7 g were used in the study. CK-MB levels were measured at 60 min (groups A and C) and at 120 min (groups B and D) of reperfusion. Erythropoietin was administered only in groups C and D.

Results: Erythropoietin administration kept non significantly increased the predicted CK-MB values by 4.28%+5.11% (P= 0.3721). Reperfusion time non significantly decreased the predicted CK-MB values by the same quantities 4.28%+5.11% (P= 0.3721). Interaction of erythropoietin administration and reperfusion time kept non significantly increased the predicted CK-MB values by 2.32%+3.09% (P= 0.4430).

Conclusions: Erythropoietin administration whether it interacted or not with reperfusion time kept short-term non significantly increased the predicted CK-MB values.
