Cytoskeletal-based mechanisms differently regulate in vivo and in vitro proplatelet formation
23 Apr 2020
Abstract excerpt
Platelets are produced by bone marrow megakaryocytes through cytoplasmic protrusions, named native proplatelets (nPPT), into blood vessels. Proplatelets also refer to protrusions observed in megakaryocyte culture (cPPT) that are morphologically different. Contrary to cPPT, the mechanisms of nPPT formation are poorly understood. We show here in living mice that nPPT elongation is in equilibrium between protrusive...
