Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Megakaryocytes (MKs) are large, polyploid cells and precursors of blood platelets. Interleukin (IL)-1α is a proinflammatory cytokine and a known mediator of emergency thrombopoiesis. However, its effect on MK maturation in vitro has not been studied in detail. OBJECTIVES: We aimed to investigate the phenotypical and molecular consequences of IL-1α-based MK maturation. METHODS: Murine bone marrows were...
