1.	Hypoxia (Hypoxemia) 01/01/1975 - "Erythrogenin levels in liver and spleen were compared in young and adult anephric rats exposed to 6h of hypoxia. " 06/01/1978 - "Effects of increasing time between nephrectomy and hypoxia on extrarenal erythrogenin." 10/01/1975 - "Further studies demonstrate that anephric rats subjected to 24 h of mild hypoxia, at a time when no elevated serum erythropoietin was detected, could once again be stimulated to produce extrarenal serum erythropoietin which was associated with elevated liver erythrogenin activity. " 10/01/1975 - "In the anephric rat, serum erythropoietin levels parallel liver erythrogenin activity under both mild hypoxia (0.42 atm of air) and severe hypoxia (0.35 atm of air) over a 30-h time period. "
2.	Neoplasms (Cancer) 06/01/1982 - "It is proposed that the greater amount of erythrogenin activity in the normal tissue may reflect an attempt at liver regeneration following damage by an invading tumor, as regenerating liver has been identified as a stimulus for extrarenal EP and erythrogenin production."
