Abstract excerpt
<h4>Introduction</h4> The proto-oncogene (MPL) gen encodes the receptor for thrombopoietin (TPO-R), a member of hematopoietic receptor superfamily. Thrombopoietin (TPO), the primary cytokine regulating self-renewal of hematopoietic stem cells, thrombopoiesis and megakaryocytopoiesis. TPO binding to TPO-R induces activation of Janus Kinase 2 (JAK2). Activated JAK2 triggers the activation of downstream positive sig...
