Erythropoietin (Epo) produced by the kidney regulates erythropoiesis. Recent evidence suggests that Epo in the cerebrum prevents neuron death and Epo in the uterus induces estrogen (E(2))-dependent uterine angiogenesis. To elucidate how Epo expression is regulated in these tissues, ovariectomized mice were given E(2) and/or exposed to hypoxia, and the temporal patterns of Epo mRNA levels were examined. Epo mRNA levels in the kidney and cerebrum were elevated markedly within 4 h after exposure to hypoxia. Although the elevated level of Epo mRNA in the kidney decreased markedly within 8 h despite continuous hypoxia, the high level in the cerebrum was sustained for > or = 24 h, indicating that downregulation operates in the kidney but not in the brain. E(2) transiently induced Epo mRNA in the uterus but not in the kidney and cerebrum. Interestingly, the uterine Epo mRNA was hypoxia inducible only in the presence of E(2). Thus Epo expression appears to be regulated in a tissue-specific manner, endorsing the tissue-specific functions of Epo.
