Altered thrombopoiesis in spontaneously hypertensive rats [PDF]
Platelet hyperreactivity is a risk factor for cardiovascular disease development and mortality in hypertensive patients. Although several studies have linked platelet hyperreactivity with increased bone marrow thrombopoiesis, extramedullary ...

Apoptosis in megakaryocytes: Safeguard and threat for thrombopoiesis
Platelets, generated from precursor megakaryocytes (MKs), are central mediators of hemostasis and thrombosis. The process of thrombopoiesis is extremely complex, regulated by multiple factors, and related to many cellular events including apoptosis ...

CD11c+ Cells Control Platelet Homeostasis in a Murine Bone Marrow Chimeric Atherosclerosis Model [PDF]
Background/Objectives: Dendritic cells (DCs) are key regulators of immune responses in cardiovascular disease, yet their role in platelet homeostasis and thrombopoiesis remains incompletely understood. We previously demonstrated that chronic depletion of

Temporal Lysophosphatidic Acid Supplementation Enhances Megakaryocyte Differentiation and Platelet Production From Human Hematopoietic Progenitors. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Platelet shortages and limited storage stability restrict global platelet transfusion capacity, highlighting the need for efficient in vitro platelet production systems. This study establishes a simple, non‐genetic and cost‐effective system for efficient in vitro platelet‐like particle (PLP) production from human hematopoietic stem/progenitor ...

Thrombocytopenia in dengue infection: mechanisms and a potential application [PDF]
Thrombocytopenia is a common symptom and one of the warning signs of dengue virus (DENV) infection. Platelet depletion is critical as it may lead to other severe dengue symptoms.

α-Actinin-1 in Megakaryocytes: Its Structure, Interacting Proteins and Implications for Thrombopoiesis [PDF]
Mutations in the ACTN1 gene, which encodes the cytoskeletal protein α-actinin-1, have been implicated in the etiology of autosomal dominant congenital macrothrombocytopenia.

Beyond energy: Mitochondrial control of platelet lifecycle through redox, calcium, and dynamics [PDF]
Platelet disorders, caused by quantitative deficiencies or functional impairments, significantly contribute to cardiovascular, neurological, and iatrogenic pathologies. Although platelets are indispensable for hemostasis, thrombosis, and immune responses,

Enhanced thrombopoiesis supplies PD-L1 to circulating immune cells via the generation of PD-L1-expressing platelets in patients with lung cancer [PDF]
Background The increased expression of programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-L1) on a subset of immune cells in the peripheral blood has been frequently observed in patients with cancer, suggesting a relationship with PD-L1 expression in tumor tissues.
