Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVES: Little is known about the transcriptional events underlying megakaryocytic (Mk) differentiation. We sought to identify genes and pathways previously unassociated with megakaryopoiesis and to evaluate the CHRF-288-11 (CHRF) megakaryoblastic cell line as a model system for investigating megakaryopoiesis. METHODS: Using DNA microarrays, Q-RT-PCR, and protein-level assays, we compared the dynamic gene...
