The effect of erythropoietin (Ep), a glycoprotein hormone, has been studied on lipid peroxidation induced by Cu2+ and ascorbate in vitro, Mg2+ ATPase activity and spectrin of RBC membrane. Our present investigation reveals that Cu2+ and ascorbic acid increases lipid peroxidation of RBC membrane significantly. It has further been observed that under the same experimental condition spectrin, a major cytoskeleton membrane protein, and Mg(2+)-ATPase activity of RBC membrane decrease significantly. However, exogenous administration of Ep completely restores lipid peroxidation and Mg(2+)-ATPase activity and partially recovers spectrin of RBC membrane.
