The current study sought to characterize the pro-survival effects of erythropoietin (EPO) in a toxicant model of Parkinson's disease (PD). EPO treatment induced time-dependent elevations of antioxidant glutathione peroxidase (GPx) and anti-apoptotic factors (pAkt and pBad/Bad) within the striatum and substantia nigra pars compacta (SNc). Intriguingly, our results indicated a region- and lesion size- dependence of pro-survival effects of EPO. Indeed, intra-striatal (but not intra-nigral) infusion of EPO was effective at preventing do
