Abstract

Fasting in normal or erythropoietin treated mice results in parallel decrease of erythropoietic activity in spleen and bone marrow. In testosterone-treated animals, starvation only decreases the splenic fraction while the bone marrow erythropoiesis shows a marked increase above normal values.
