Culture of Megakaryocytes from Human Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells
Megakaryocytes are the precursor cells of platelets and are bona fide resident cells in the bone marrow but extremely low in numbers (~1% of total nucleated cells).

Emperipolesis is considered a physiological phenomena often present in various pathophysiological conditions, but its etiology is still unknown. In this study, we analyzed the number of megakaryocytes and the percentage of emperipoletic cells in the ...

CXCR4high megakaryocytes regulate host-defense immunity against bacterial pathogens
Megakaryocytes (MKs) continuously produce platelets to support hemostasis and form a niche for hematopoietic stem cell maintenance in the bone marrow.

Brain-derived neurotrophic factor in megakaryocytes [PDF]
The biosynthesis of endogenous BDNF has thus far been examined in neurons where it is expressed at very low levels, in an activity-dependent fashion. In humans, BDNF has long been known to accumulate in circulating platelets, at levels far higher than in

Dual role of IL-21 in megakaryopoiesis and platelet homeostasis
Gene profiling studies have indicated that in vitro differentiated human megakaryocytes express the receptor for IL-21 (IL-21R), an immunostimulatory cytokine associated with inflammatory disorders and currently under evaluation in cancer therapy.

Changes in Megakaryocytes in Cases of Thrombocytopenia: Bone Marrow Aspiration and Biopsy Analysis [PDF]
Background: Thrombocytopenia (platelet counts less than 150,000/μl) is commonly encountered in various hematological disorders including myelodysplastic syndromes as well as various non-myelodysplastic hematological conditions.

Megakaryocytes morphology in idiopathic (primary) myelofibrosis [PDF]
SummaryBackgroundThe cause of idiopathic myelofibrosis (IM) originating from a haemopoietic stem cells with development of secondary marrow fibrosis is unknown.

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is a platelet-based application used to treat osteoarthritis (OA) clinically. The co-stimulatory molecule CD226 is expressed in T cells, NK cells, and also platelets. However, exact effects of CD226 on platelets and whether its

Megakaryocyte- and megakaryocyte precursor–related gene therapies [PDF]
AbstractHematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) can be safely collected from the body, genetically modified, and re-infused into a patient with the goal to express the transgene product for an individual’s lifetime. Hematologic defects that can be corrected with an allogeneic bone marrow transplant can theoretically also be treated with gene replacement ...
