Contrôle antidopage. [L'EPO comme drogue augmentant l'endurance]. Contrôle anti-doping à Atlanta 96. [...] L'érithropoiétine, ou EPO, est une autre hormone très populaire. Elle a remplacé la technique de dopage par ajout de sang. Auparavant, l'athlète conservait une dose de son propre sang qu'il se réinjectait juste avant la compétition [doping sanguin], l'ajout de globules rouges ayant pour effet d'oxygéner le sang et d'augmenter sa résistance. Maintenant, ce n'est plus nécessaire : L'EPO, également présente dans le corps à l'état naturel, stimule la production de globules rouges et est à peu près indétectable (d'ailleurs, à Atlanta, l'équipement disponible ne permettra pas de détecter l'IGF-1 (une hormone peptide) et l'EPO). 2, record 1, French, - %C3%A9rythropo%C3%AF%C3%A9tine
