abstract：:We investigated in vitro effects of recombinant human thrombopoietin (TPO), or c-Mpl ligand, on human platelets. TPO induced rapid dose-dependent tyrosine phosphorylation of several proteins. We identified Janus tyrosine kinases, Tyk2 and JAK2, and a member of STAT (signal transducers and activators of transcription) ...
