Thrombopoietin-Induced Differentiation of a Human Megakaryoblastic Leukemia Cell Line, CMK, Involves Transcriptional Activation of p21 WAF1/Cip1 by STAT5
1 May 1997
Abstract excerpt
Although thrombopoietin (TPO) is known to play a fundamental role in both megakaryopoiesis and thrombopoiesis, the molecular mechanism of TPO-induced megakaryocytic differentiation is not known. In a human megakaryoblastic leukemia cell line, CMK, that showed some degree of megakaryocytic differentiation after culture with TPO, the cyclin-dependent kinase (Cdk) inhibitor p21(WAF1/Cip1), but not p27(Kip1),...
