Thrombopoietin (TPO) plays an important role in injuries of different tissues. However, the
role of TPO in acute pancreatitis (AP) is not yet known. The aim of the study was to …

Objectives To study the concentrations of thrombopoietin (TPO), a growth factor recently
involved in the pathogenesis of experimental acute pancreatitis (AP), and its potential role …

The plasma concentration of thrombopoietin (TPO) in general is inversely related to the
mass of platelets and megakaryocytes. However, reactive thrombocytosis of inflammatory …

Background: Thrombopoietin (TPO) is a humoral growth factor that does not induce platelet
aggregation per se, but enhances platelet activation in response to several agonists …

Clinical and laboratory studies indicate that thrombopoietin (TPO) gene expression
increases during inflammation. To clarify the role of interleukin 6 (IL-6) in this process, blood …

Objectives Sepsis is a life-threatening condition implicating an inadequate activation of the
immune system. Platelets act as modulators and contributors to immune processes. Indeed …

Liver regeneration after partial hepatectomy is impaired in steatotic livers of leptin-deficient
ob/ob mice. Previous studies have shown that thrombopoietin (TPO) promotes liver …

Background and Purpose Thrombopoietin (TPO), a growth factor primarily involved in
thrombopoiesis may also have a role in the pathophysiology of sepsis. In patients with …

Thrombopoietin (TPO) is a humoral growth factor originally identified for its ability to
stimulate the proliferation and differentiation of megakaryocytes. In addition to its actions on …

Abstract Background and Aims: The main causes of thrombocytopenia in cirrhosis are
thought to be platelet destruction and the reduction of thrombopoietin (TPO) expression in …
