New insights into cytoskeletal remodeling during platelet production
JOURNAL OF THROMBOSIS AND HAEMOSTASIS(2019)
摘要
The past decade has brought unprecedented advances in our understanding of megakaryocyte (MK) biology and platelet production, processes that are strongly dependent on the cytoskeleton. Facilitated by technological innovations, such as new high-resolution imaging techniques (in vitro and in vivo) and lineage-specific gene knockout and reporter mouse strains, we are now able to visualize and characterize the molecular machinery required for MK development and proplatelet formation in live mice. Whole genome and RNA sequencing analysis of patients with rare platelet disorders, combined with targeted genetic interventions in mice, has led to the identification and characterization of numerous new genes important for MK development. Many of the genes important for proplatelet formation code for proteins that control cytoskeletal dynamics in cells, such as Rho GTPases and their downstream targets. In this review, we discuss how the final stages of MK development are controlled by the cellular cytoskeletons, and we compare changes in MK biology observed in patients and mice with mutations in cytoskeleton regulatory genes.
