"Promising results in animal studies
The researchers found that animals given a single dose of EPO and then given
the equivalent of an ischaemic heart attack suffered less severe attacks.
That's because EPO somehow reduced programmed cell death in heart cells, the
study says.

The finding comes from a Thomas Jefferson University Medical College study
in the Oct. 1 issue of the Journal of Clinical Investigation."



Probable also can reduce programmed cell death in brain cells.
