The plasma concentrations of erythropoietin (Ep), soluble transferrin receptors (sTfRs), iron, total iron binding capacity (TIBC) and ferritin were monitored in five leukaemia patients undergoing autologous bone marrow stem cell transplantation (BMSCT) and in 10 lymphoma and 21 ovarian cancer patients undergoing autologous peripheral blood SCT (PBSCT); 9/21 ovarian cancer patients received recombinant human G-CSF and Ep and six recombinant human GM-CSF and Ep following SCT. All parameters were evaluated in relation to the kinetics of erythroid reconstitution as evaluated by haemoglobin (Hb) and reticulocyte levels [including the fraction of immature reticulocytes, also called highly fluorescent reticulocytes (HFR)]. Leukaemia patients undergoing BMSCT showed only a delayed (occurring at days 35-50 after SCT) and partial RBC, neutrophil and platelet recovery, whereas all patients undergoing PBSCT exhibited a rapid (occurring at days 10-15 after SCT) and sustained haemopoietic recovery. The various levels of erythroid rescue observed among these patients markedly influenced the kinetics of the different parameters investigated: (i) in leukaemia BMSCT patients sTfRs declined following SCT and remained at low levels thereafter, whereas Ep, iron. TIBC and ferritin showed a progressive and significant increase; (ii) in the different groups of patients undergoing PBSCT: (a) sTfR levels first declined following SCT and then returned to pre-therapy values at days 12-16, this response preceded erythropoietic recovery; (b) Ep, total iron, TIBC and ferritin showed an initial increase in the first days following SCT and then returned to pre-therapy values. Altogether, these observations indicate that: (i) both sTfR levels and reticulocyte counts are predictive parameters of erythropoietic recovery; (ii) coordinated changes of biochemical parameters underlying iron metabolism (iron, TIBC and ferritin) accompany erythroid rescue following SCT.
