The effect of a single IV injection of EPO variants on reticulocyte counts in mice. ICR mice ( /group) received a single IV injection/week for three weeks of rHuEPO, Aranesp, or EPO-(CTP)3 (15 mg/kg). Blood samples were collected after 72 h and reticulocytes were counted. Each point represents the group average of reticulocyte (%) ± SE. *** .
