Role of thrombopoiesis in leishmaniasis

Cytokine, 2021
The blood vascular system of mammals is unique in nature; inhabited with a pool of tiny small cell fragments called platelets; attributed with the most important patrolling tasks to check integrity of the entire endothelial landscape. Their production is tightly coupled with hematopoietic system where everything starts from self renewable multipotent ...

Effect of ethanol on thrombopoiesis

British Journal of Haematology, 1986
Summary. Chronic ethanol abuse causes thrombocytopenia but the underlying mechanism is unknown. To determine the target cells involved, we examined the effects of the drug in vitro on both megakaryocyte progenitor cells (CFU‐Meg) and isolated, maturing megakaryocytes.

Ineffective Thrombopoiesis

Proceedings, annual meeting, Electron Microscopy Society of America, 1990
In effective thrombopoies is has been inferred to occur in several disease sates from considerations of megakaryocyte mass and platelet kinetics. Microscopic examination has demonstrated increased numbers of megakaryocytes, with a typical forms particularly pronounced, in primary myelofibrosis.

Thrombopoiesis

Seminars in Hematology, 2015
The production of platelets is a complex process that involves hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs), their differentiated progeny, the marrow microenvironment and hematopoietic cytokines. Much has been learned in the 110 years since James Homer Wright postulated that marrow megakaryocytes were responsible for blood platelet production, at a time when ...

Studies on thrombopoiesis

The Journal of Pediatrics, 1965
An extract of fresh normal human plasma was shown to contain a factor capable of inducing platelet formation in rats. This thrombopoietic factor, which is labile on storage, was markedly deficient in the plasma of a child with chronic congenital thrombocytopenic purpura who responded repeatedly to infusions of normal human plasma.

Thrombopoiesis: Capturing the unicorn

Current Biology, 1994
The elusive factor that stimulates megakaryocytes to produce platelets has at last been found; as well as its physiological interest, this factor--thrombopoietin--may be of considerable therapeutic importance.

Effects of Endotoxemia on Thrombopoiesis in Men

Thrombosis and Haemostasis, 1999
Summary Background. Febrile conditions are often associated with increased platelet turnover and refractoriness to platelet transfusions, although several pyrogenic cytokines enhance thrombopoiesis. This study aimed to characterize the effects of experimental human endotoxemia on platelet turnover and thrombopoiesis. Methods.
