The role of CD8+ T-cell clones in immune thrombocytopenia
Key Points • Patients with chronic ITP had clonal expansions of disease-associated TEMRA CD8+ T cells.• CD8+ T cells bind to platelets and cause their activation and apoptosis, defining an antibody-independent mechanism of platelet destruction.

Treatment of drug-induced immune thrombocytopenias
Several therapeutic agents can cause thrombocytopenia by either immune-mediated or non-immune-mediated mechanisms. Non-immune-mediated thrombocytopenia is due to direct toxicity of drug molecules to platelets or megakaryocytes.

Rilzabrutinib, an Oral BTK Inhibitor, in Immune Thrombocytopenia.
BACKGROUND Rilzabrutinib, an oral, reversible covalent inhibitor of Bruton's tyrosine kinase, may increase platelet counts in patients with immune thrombocytopenia by means of dual mechanisms of action: decreased macrophage (Fcγ receptor)-mediated ...
