Clinical indications for thrombopoietin and thrombopoietin-receptor agonists.
Thrombocytopenia is a common hematologic disorder. Stimulation of thrombopoiesis may reduce the risk for thrombocytopenia-induced bleeding, prevent severe thrombocytopenia, and reduce the need for platelet transfusion. The key cytokine is thrombopoietin (TPO). It regulates proliferation and maturation of megakaryocytes as well as platelet production. TPO is synthesized in the liver. Development...
متن کاملUse of Thrombopoietin Receptor Agonists in Childhood Immune Thrombocytopenia
Most children with immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) will have spontaneous remission regardless of therapy, while about 20% will go on to have chronic ITP. In those children with chronic ITP who need treatment, standard therapies for acute ITP may have adverse effects that complicate their long-term use. Thus, alternative treatment options are needed for children with chronic ITP. Thrombopoietin re...
متن کاملThe biology of thrombopoietin and thrombopoietin receptor agonists.
Thrombopoietin (TPO) is the major physiological regulator of platelet production. TPO binds the TPO receptor, activates JAK and STAT pathways, thus stimulating megakaryocyte growth and platelet production. There is no "sensor" of the platelet count; rather TPO is produced in the liver at a constant rate and cleared by TPO receptors on platelets. TPO levels are inversely proportional to the rate...
متن کاملHistory of the Development and Clinical Use of Cb1 Receptor Inverse Agonists/antagonists
Introduction In 1964, the structure of delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol, the main psychoactive ingredient in marijuana, was identified [1]. The breakthrough was given impetus by the discovery of cannabinoid receptors and their endogenous ligands, the endocannabinoids. The endocannabinoid system (ECS) is a physiological system with an important regulatory role in numerous biological functions, both ...
