DiseaseDisease
[TPO_HUMAN] Defects in THPO are the cause of thrombocythemia type 1 (THCYT1) [MIM:187950]. A myeloproliferative disorder characterized by elevated platelet levels due to sustained proliferation of megakaryocytes, and frequently lead to thrombotic and haemorrhagic complications.[1]
FunctionFunction
[TPO_HUMAN] Lineage-specific cytokine affecting the proliferation and maturation of megakaryocytes from their committed progenitor cells. It acts at a late stage of megakaryocyte development. It may be the major physiological regulator of circulating platelets.
