Immunohistochemical localization of erythropoietin in the rat and mouse submandibular gland.
There is a great deal of evidence to indicate that organs other than the kidney are involved in erythropoietin production. In this paper, it is reported that erythropoietin has been localized with an immunocytochemical method in the granular ducts of the submandibular glands of the rat and mouse.
