We have examined the effects of chronic endotoxin treatment on erythropoiesis in six grey collies with cyclic haematopoiesis. Blood reticulocytes, bone marrow erythroid colony (EC) forming cells, serum iron and erythropoietin (ESF) values showed regular periodic fluctuations in untreated grey collies. Daily endotoxin injections eliminated the cyclic fluctuations of reticulocytes and EC. The mean serum iron values were increased and recurrent hypoferraemia eliminated, while the mean serum ESF values were reduced. The cyclic fluctuations of serum ESF values were no longer apparent in the endotoxin treated grey collies. Tritiated thymidine suicide of the marrow EC forming cells failed to show cyclic changes either in untreated or endotoxin treated dogs. The ESF sensitivity of EC in the grey collie was unchanged during endotoxin treatment and was not different from normal dogs. Endotoxin appears to alter periodic erythropoiesis by stabilizing the flux of cells into the committed erythroid precursor cell pool from a more primitive stem cell compartment.
