Research Abstract

We examined the prevalence, clinical associations and pathogenic role of novel autoantibodies to the erythropoietin receptor (EPOR) in patients with anemia of chronic disease (ACD). As a result, serum anti-EPOR antibodies were detected in some patients, but in none of the healthy controls. Sera from patients with anti-EPOR antibodies inhibited EPO-dependent cell proliferation. Among SLE patients studied, anti-EPOR antibodies were associated with reticulocytopenia and a decrease in bone marrow erythroblasts. In conclusion, impaired erythropoiesis may be mediated by anti-EPOR antibodies, which functionally neutralize EPO activity.
