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

Journal 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.

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

British Journal of Haematology, Volume 209, Issue 2, Page 420-431, August 2026.
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.

Excessive serine from the bone marrow microenvironment impairs megakaryopoiesis and thrombopoiesis in Multiple Myeloma

Nature Communications, 2023
Thrombocytopenia is a major complication in a subset of patients with multiple myeloma (MM). However, little is known about its development and significance during MM. Here, we show thrombocytopenia is linked to poor prognosis in MM.

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

British Journal of Pharmacology, Volume 183, Issue 15, Page 4111-4125, August 2026.
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,

Thrombopoietin-independent generation of platelet-like particles from megakaryoblastic cells

Scientific Reports, 2023
The use of megakaryoblastic leukemia MEG-01 cells can help reveal the mechanisms of thrombopoiesis. However, conventional in vitro activation of platelet release from MEG-01 cells requires thrombopoietin, which is costly.

Tumor‐educated platelets in cancer diagnostics and prognostics: A critical appraisal and roadmap for clinical translation

International Journal of Cancer, Volume 159, Issue 2, Page 302-319, 15 July 2026.
Abstract Tumor‐educated platelets (TEPs) are emerging as a compelling frontier in liquid biopsy, functioning as dynamic, systemic sensors that sequester and process tumor‐derived biomolecules. This interaction imprints an integrated molecular signature of malignancy—spanning the transcriptome, proteome, lipidome, and crucially, the captured genome ...

A megakaryocyte in the peripheral blood: evidence for pulmonary migration?

Frontiers in Hematology
Pulmonary megakaryocytes were first identified over a century ago, but their origin is still debated. Two rare images of circulating megakaryocytes are presented to illustrate this discussion: The first shows an intact megakaryocyte with abundant ...

Eyes Toward the Clinic: Selective Inhibition and Degradation Approaches to Bromodomain‐Containing Proteins

ChemBioChem, Volume 27, Issue 13, 14 July 2026.
The function of bromodomain‐containing proteins in regulating gene transcription is reviewed here, including the development of chemical probes and targeted protein degradation modalities (e.g., PROTACs). This extends to clinical efforts targeting the BET bromodomain‐containing proteins. Challenges of selectivity, future prospects, and the differential

Effect of simvastatin on thrombopoiesis in porcine bone marrow

Journal 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 ...

Calreticulin in Essential Thrombocythemia: StressINg OUT the Megakaryocyte Nucleus

Frontiers in Oncology, 2017
Calreticulin (CALR) is a multifaceted protein primarily involved in intracellular protein control processes. The identification of CALR mutations in essential thrombocythemia (ET) and primary myelofibrosis that are mutually exclusive with the JAK2 V617F ...
