[The principles for creating drug preparations of natural origin that stimulate hematopoiesis]

The paper outlines the principles in designing hemostimulators by using glycosamineglycans. Hemostimulating properties of the tested agents is likely to be primarily due to the presence of D-glucuronic acid in their structure. The homotypic mechanisms are largely responsible for all agents' effect in stimulating hemopoiesis. Thus, they all virtually activate the function of the hemopoiesis-inducing microenvironment. In addition, they directly or indirectly stimulate the processes of proliferation and differentiation of precursor cells of erythro- and granulomonocytopoiesis.
