CUI: C0040034
Disease: Thrombocytopenia
Thrombocytopenia
0.100 AlteredExpression phenotype BEFREE We conclude that thrombocytopenia in liver cirrhosis is caused not only by platelet destruction but also by decreased platelet production, perhaps due to reduction of thrombopoietin mRNA in the liver. 9794189 1998
CUI: C0040034
Disease: Thrombocytopenia
Thrombocytopenia
0.100 Biomarker phenotype BEFREE Feline thrombopoietin (TPO) was molecularly cloned to establish a basis for cytokine therapy of thrombocytopenia in cats. cDNA clones covering the whole coding sequence of feline TPO were isolated from feline liver. 9880100 1998
CUI: C0040034
Disease: Thrombocytopenia
Thrombocytopenia
0.100 Biomarker phenotype BEFREE Following platelet peak, BALB/c mice developed autoantibodies against murine TPO leading to thrombocytopenia and depletion of megakaryocytes and hemopoietic progenitors in bone marrow. 9551904 1998
CUI: C0040034
Disease: Thrombocytopenia
Thrombocytopenia
0.100 Biomarker phenotype BEFREE MGDF may thus have a role in attenuating the thrombocytopenia associated with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and its therapy. 9711904 1998
CUI: C0040034
Disease: Thrombocytopenia
Thrombocytopenia
0.100 AlteredExpression phenotype BEFREE To investigate the role of an impaired TPO gene expression in the pathogenesis of thrombocytopenia in pediatric patients suffering from liver failure, we measured hepatic TPO mRNA in children with acute or chronic end-stage liver disease undergoing orthotopic liver transplantation. 10347116 1999
CUI: C0040034
Disease: Thrombocytopenia
Thrombocytopenia
0.100 Biomarker phenotype BEFREE Since thrombopoietin (TPO), a regulator of thrombopoiesis, is produced mainly in the liver, decreased production of TPO may account for thrombocytopenia in liver diseases. 11787473 2000
CUI: C0040034
Disease: Thrombocytopenia
Thrombocytopenia
0.100 Biomarker phenotype BEFREE Thrombopoietin (TPO), a major cytokine involved in megakaryocytopoiesis/thrombopoiesis, may be effective for treatment of the thrombocytopenia associated with myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS). 10742383 2000

CUI: C0040034
Disease: Thrombocytopenia
Thrombocytopenia
0.100 Biomarker phenotype BEFREE These data demonstrate a new mechanism for thrombocytopenia in which antibody develops to TPO; because endogenous TPO is produced constitutively, thrombocytopenia ensues. 11719360 2001
CUI: C0040034
Disease: Thrombocytopenia
Thrombocytopenia
0.100 AlteredExpression phenotype BEFREE TPO levels may be regulated not only by platelets but also by megakaryocytes in AA and ITP, and measurement of TPO levels is useful for diagnosing thrombocytopenia and understanding the pathophysiology of thrombocytopenia. 12150725 2002
