Interrelationships between changes in erythropoietin, plasma volume, haemoglobin concentration, and total haemoglobin mass in endurance athletes.
Research in Sports Medicine 2018 July
Interrelationships between physiological changes (Δ) in erythropoietin (EPO), plasma volume (PV), haemoglobin concentration ([Hb]), and total haemoglobin mass (tHb-mass) were examined in cyclists who trained in different altitudes. Regardless of differences in pattern of changes observed in three training locations, ΔEPO was correlated positively with ΔPV, negatively with Δ[Hb], and trivially with ΔtHb-mass. Δ[Hb] was negatively correlated with ΔPV. In the pooled data the Spearman's rank correlation coefficients were as follows: r = 0.783, P < 0.001; r = -0.704, P < 0.001; r = 0.136, P > 0.05; r = -0.813, P < 0.001, respectively. The obtained results have shown that EPO does not only regulate [Hb] by erythropoiesis stimulation but also by PV modulation, which probably aims at keeping proper level of arterial oxygen content for oxygen delivery to tissues.
