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 ...

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 ...

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.

Pathologic thrombopoiesis of rheumatoid arthritis

Rheumatology International, 2003
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is frequently complicated by thrombocytosis correlated with disease activity. The exact pathogenetic mechanism(s) that cause increased platelet counts in RA are still unknown. Recent investigations indicate that proinflammatory pleiotropic cytokines of RA also have megakaryocytopoietic/thrombopoietic properties.

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.

Romiplostim: A novel thrombopoiesis-stimulating agent

American Journal of Health-System Pharmacy, 2009
The pharmacology, pharmacokinetics, dosage and administration, efficacy, safety, effects on quality of life, and place in therapy of romiplostim are reviewed.Romiplostim is a second- generation thrombopoietic agent that stimulates the thrombopoietin receptor and platelet production without inducing production of autoantibodies. Romiplostim, a peptibody,
