Abstract

Objective: The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of Erythropoietin on SCC-25, TR146, and FIBS cells lines and measurement of growth factor release, using the ELISA technique.

Materials and Methods: ELISA was performed to see if Erythropoietin (1, 10, 25 units) treatment in SCC-25, FIBS, and TR146 cells had any effect on the release of growth factor VEGF and EGF. Serum-free was used as a control.

Results: It was found that 10- and 25-unit concentration of Erythropoietin showed the maximum release of EGF in SCC-25. The effect on VEGF release was slightly different where 1 unit of Erythropoietin showed maximum VEGF release in FIBS and had no effect on the other cell types.

Conclusion: This study has confirmed that 10- and 25-unit concentration of Erythropoietin showed the maximum release of EGF in SCC-25. The effect on VEGF release was slightly different where 1 unit of Erythropoietin showed maximum VEGF release in FIBS.
