A molecular model of erythropoietin,a glycoprotein hormone,produced by the kidneys,that regulates red blood cell production (erythropoiesis) in the bone marrow. When performance enhancing drugs are used in high endurance sports to stimulate erythropoietin production,the athelete's red blood cell count increases,allowing them to deliver greater amounts of oxygen to their cells to gain an unfair advantage | |
