Thrombopoiesis and Thrombopoietins: Molecular, Cellular, Preclinical, and Clinical Biology

Kuter, David; Hunt, Pamela; Sheridan, William P.; Zucker-Franklin, Dorothea

David Kuter and a host of leading international researchers summarize in one volume all the knowledge of thrombopoietins (TPO) available today. The distinguished experts review the history of the search to discover TPO, describe the molecular and biological characteristics of this new molecule, and present the results of the preclinical animal experiments that will guide clinical use of this new hormone. Along the way they provide the most recent and comprehensive guide to the biology of megakaryocytes and platelets.
