Optimized gating and reference ranges of reticulated platelets in dogs for the Sysmex XT-2000iV [PDF]
Background: Canine reticulated platelets (r-PLTs) i.e., juvenile PLTs reflecting thrombopoiesis can be measured automatically with the hematology analyzer Sysmex XT-2000iV using manual gating options.

ROS: novel regulators of thrombopoiesis [PDF]
In this issue of Blood, Wu et al describe a novel dominant negative loss-of-function mutation (BLVRB S111L) in a heme catabolic pathway deregulating reactive oxygen species (ROS) and associated with thrombocytosis ...

Specialized bone marrow microenvironments (vascular and osteoblastic 'niches') regulate normal haematopoietic stem/progenitor cells. Recently, the vascular niche has also been implicated as an area for preferential engraftment of malignant cells.

A gain-of-function variant in DIAPH1 causes dominant macrothrombocytopenia and hearing loss [PDF]
Macrothrombocytopenia (MTP) is a heterogeneous group of disorders characterized by enlarged and reduced numbers of circulating platelets, sometimes resulting in abnormal bleeding.

Phosphorylation of CLEC-2 is dependent on lipid rafts, actin polymerization,secondary mediators, and Rac [PDF]
The C-type lectin-like receptor 2 (CLEC-2)activates platelets through Src and Syk tyrosine kinases via a single cytoplasmic YxxL motif known as a hem immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motif (hemITAM).Here, we demonstrate using sucrose gradient ...

Platelet Apoptosis in Adult Immune Thrombocytopenia: Insights into the Mechanism of Damage Triggered by Auto-antibodies [PDF]
Mechanisms leading to decreased platelet count in immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) are heterogeneous. This study describes increased platelet apoptosis involving loss of mitochondrial membrane potential (ΔΨm), caspase 3 activation (aCasp3) and ...

Eltrombopag for the treatment of immune thrombocytopenia: The aegean region of Turkey experience [PDF]
Objective: Immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) is an immune-mediated disease characterized by transient or persistent decrease of the platelet count to less than 100x109/L. Although it is included in a benign disease group, bleeding complications may be mortal.
