G6b-B regulates an essential step in megakaryocyte maturation
2021-11-12
Abstract excerpt
G6b-B is a megakaryocyte lineage-specific immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibition motif (ITIM)-containing receptor, essential for platelet homeostasis. Mice with a genomic deletion of the entire Mpig6b locus develop severe macrothrombocytopenia and myelofibrosis, which is reflected in humans with null-mutations in MPIG6B . The current model proposes that megakaryocytes lacking G6b-B develop normally, while prop...
