Acute hypocalcemia and erythropoiesis in the mouse.
Mice were made acutely hypocalcemic by injection of sodium oxalate. After the transient drop of plasma calcium marked changes in erythroblastic proliferation, number of erythroblasts and 59Fe kinetics were observed. The probable mechanism of this response that may reflect increased erythropoiesis is discussed.
