Physiologic Role of TPO in Thrombopoiesis [PDF]

open access: yesStem Cells, 1996
Recombinant human thrombopoietin (rHuTPO) serves as a megakaryocyte colony-stimulating factor and predominantly acts on GPIIb/IIIa+ rat late megakaryocyte progenitor cells, colony forming units-megakaryocyte (CFU-MK). The GPIIb/IIIa+ fraction of CFU-MK differentiates into mature megakaryocytes and further into proplatelets in liquid culture containing ...

The lung is more than an organ of gas exchange: immunocompetency, platelets and implications for drug discovery

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, Volume 183, Issue 20, Page 5999-6006, October 2026.
Abstract The lungs have for a long time been recognised as having pharmacological significance as a specific organ to modulate the pharmacokinetics of endogenous substances needed to maintain homeostasis. The lungs are therefore the site of action of certain drugs that act on these homeostatic processes, resulting in systemic effects on the ...

Effect of simvastatin on thrombopoiesis in porcine bone marrow

open access: yesJournal of Veterinary Research, 2019
Introduction: Statins are pharmacological agents commonly used to lower serum cholesterol level. The aim of the experiment was to investigate the effect of the statin simvastatin on thrombopoiesis in the porcine model because it is the closest to the ...

Tropomyosin 1 Promotes Platelet Adhesion and Clot Contraction Separate from Its Roles in Developmental Hematopoiesis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 48, 28 August 2026.
ABSTRACT Genome‐wide association studies (GWAS) link the Tropomyosin 1 (Tpm1) locus to quantitative blood trait variation, but related mechanisms are unclear. Tpm1 encodes an actin‐binding protein that regulates actin filament diversity, cell adhesion, signaling, and actomyosin contractility.

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 ...

Dose‐Dependent Anti‐Obesity and Protective Effects of Chia (Salvia hispanica L.) Seed Oil Against Hematological and Hepatorenal Dysfunction in High‐Fat Diet–Fed Mice

open access: yesFood Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 8, August 2026.
Chia seed oil ameliorates obesity, dyslipidemia, and hepatorenal dysfunction in high‐fat diet–fed mice. ABSTRACT Chia seeds (Salvia hispanica L.) are recognized as a functional food with a nutrient‐dense profile and health‐promoting properties. In the present study, hexane‐extracted chia seed oil was investigated for anti‐obesity, hematoprotective, and
