Abstract

Recombinant human erythropoietin (rHuEPO) is used effectively in the treatment of various anemic disorders. Belgrade rat is a useful animal model of anemia caused by defect in iron utilization. The objective of the present study was to investigate the dynamics of erythropoietic biomarkers in Belgrade rats receiving rHuEPO. Pharmacokinetics of rHuEPO was evaluated in Belgrade rats and normal rats after intravenous administration of single doses of the drug (100 and 1350 IU/kg). Pharmacodynamic biomarkers included levels of red blood cells, hemoglobin, and reticulocytes following administration of a single intravenous dose of rHuEPO (100 IU/kg). Red blood cell survival was assessed after treatment with rHuEPO (450 IU/kg), three times a week for 2 weeks. It was found that rHuEPO exhibited non-linear pharmacokinetics in both Belgrade and control rats. At the low dose, plasma concentrations and AUC (area under the curve) were significantly lower while clearance and volume of distribution were higher in Belgrade rats (
