A novel method for automated assessment of megakaryocyte differentiation and proplatelet formation

open access: yesPlatelets, 2018
Transfusion of platelet concentrates represents an important treatment for various bleeding complications. However, the short half-life and frequent contaminations with bacteria restrict the availability of platelet concentrates and raise a clear demand ...

Roles of non-coding RNA in megakaryocytopoiesis and thrombopoiesis: new target therapies in ITP

open access: yesPlatelets, 2023
Noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs) are a group of RNA molecules that cannot encode proteins, and a better understanding of the complex interaction networks coordinated by ncRNAs will provide a theoretical basis for the development of therapeutics targeting the ...

MicroRNAs as potential architects of immune dysregulation and megakaryocytic failure in immune thrombocytopenia

open access: yesBritish Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
Summary Immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) is a complex autoimmune disorder characterized by accelerated destruction of peripheral platelets and impaired megakaryopoiesis. While the cellular effectors, dysregulated T cells, hyperactive B cells and phagocytic macrophages are well characterized, the upstream epigenetic mechanisms orchestrating this ...

The molecular mechanisms that control thrombopoiesis [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Investigation, 2005
Our understanding of thrombopoiesis--the formation of blood platelets--has improved greatly in the last decade, with the cloning and characterization of thrombopoietin, the primary regulator of this process. Thrombopoietin affects nearly all aspects of platelet production, from self-renewal and expansion of HSCs, through stimulation of the ...

Quantitative systems pharmacology model of thrombopoiesis and platelet life‐cycle, and its application to thrombocytopenia based on chronic liver disease

open access: yesCPT: Pharmacometrics & Systems Pharmacology, 2021
Platelets are produced by hematopoietic stem cells via megakaryocytes in the bone marrow and play a critical role in hemostasis. The aim of this study was to develop a new platelet model based on the thrombopoiesis and platelet life‐cycle by a ...

Thrombocytosis and the generation of platelet‐derived microparticles in the pathophysiology of sickle cell disease

open access: yesBritish Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
Thrombocytosis is associated with an increased production of platelet‐derived microparticles from activated platelets, which contribute to vaso‐occlusion in sickle cell disease by perpetuating the cycle of inflammation, procoagulant state and endothelial dysfunction.

A MATHEMATICAL MODEL OF THROMBOPOIESIS IN RATS

open access: yesCell Proliferation, 1979
ABSTRACTA mathematical model of thrombopoiesis in rats is presented. This has four compartments; stem cells, megakaryocytes, thrombocytes and thrombopoietin. A high thrombopoietin concentration influences bone marrow proliferation in three ways. Firstly the stem cells are stimulated and a slow increase in megakaryocyte number follows.

Vaccination Accelerates Liver-Intrinsic Expression of Megakaryocyte-Related Genes in Response to Blood-Stage Malaria

open access: yesVaccines, 2022
Erythropoiesis and megakaryo-/thrombopoiesis occur in the bone marrow proceeding from common, even bipotent, progenitor cells. Recently, we have shown that protective vaccination accelerates extramedullary hepatic erythroblastosis in response to blood ...

Haemostatic changes and bleeding with anti‐IL‐6 directed therapy in autoimmune diseases

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Anti‐IL‐6 directed therapy, especially tocilizumab (TCZ), is widely used for the treatment of autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, giant cell arteritis and systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis. Next to being a master regulator of inflammation, IL‐6 also is an important regulator of haemostasis. Although generally well tolerated,

Oxymatrine, a novel TLR2 agonist, promotes megakaryopoiesis and thrombopoiesis through the STING/NF-κB pathway

open access: yesJournal of Pharmaceutical Analysis
Radiation-induced thrombocytopenia (RIT) faces a perplexing challenge in the clinical treatment of cancer patients, and current therapeutic approaches are inadequate in the clinical settings.
