STAT1 promotes megakaryopoiesis downstream of GATA-1 in mice.
Thrombocytosis is associated with inflammation, and certain inflammatory cytokines, including IFN-gamma, stimulate megakaryocyte and platelet production. However, the roles of IFN-gamma and its downstream effector STAT1 in megakaryocyte development are poorly understood. We previously reported that STAT1 expression was significantly downregulated in Gata1-knockdown murine megakaryocytes, which ...
متن کاملGenetically Engineered In Vitro Erythropoiesis
BACKGROUND Engineered blood has the greatest potential to combat a predicted future shortfall in the US blood supply for transfusion treatments. Engineered blood produced from hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) derived red blood cells in a laboratory is possible, but critical barriers exist to the production of clinically relevant quantities of red blood cells required to create a unit of blood. Ery...
متن کاملTropomyosin Isoforms Specify Functionally Distinct Actin Filament Populations In Vitro
Actin filaments assemble into a variety of networks to provide force for diverse cellular processes [1]. Tropomyosins are coiled-coil dimers that form head-to-tail polymers along actin filaments and regulate interactions of other proteins, including actin-depolymerizing factor (ADF)/cofilins and myosins, with actin [2-5]. In mammals, >40 tropomyosin isoforms can be generated through alternative...
متن کاملEngineering the Vascular Niche: Development of a Basement Membrane Model for Studying Megakaryopoiesis In Vitro
Thrombocytopenia occurs when a patient suffers from an abnormally low platelet count in the peripheral blood; usually a result of disease, trauma, or cancer treatment. To treat these patients, it is estimated that two million platelet transfusions are performed in the U.S. each year. This high demand for platelets has created a clinical demand for studying the causes of thrombocytopenia and alt...
متن کاملSuppression of in vitro megakaryopoiesis by maternal sera containing anti-HPA-1a antibodies.
Incompatibility of the human platelet antigen-1 (HPA-1) system is the most common cause of fetal/neonatal alloimmune thrombocytopenia (F/NAIT) and is thought to be mediated by accelerated clearance of antibody-opsonized fetal platelets. We evaluated the effect of maternal sera containing anti-HPA-1a antibodies (F/NAIT sera) on in vitro megakaryopoiesis. Compared with control maternal sera, 14 o...
