Interleukin 7 (IL7)
Produced by kidneys. Enhances production of RBC
Erythropoietin (epo)
Assisted by interleukin. Stimulates production of megakaryocytes and its fragmentation produces platelets
Thrombopoeitin
Participates in the differentiation of most of the wbc but plays a particularly permanent role in the formation of basophils
IL3
No longer needed protein are expelled in this vesicle
