- W3200649660 abstract "Platelets, small anucleate cell fragments in the blood stream, derive from large precursor cells, so-called megakaryocytes (MK) residing in the bone marrow (BM). In addition to their role in wound healing, platelets have been shown to play a significant role during inflammatory bleeding. Above all, the immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motif (ITAM) receptors GPVI as well as CLEC-2 have been identified as main regulators of vascular integrity.In addition to ITAM-bearing receptors, our group identified GPV as another potent regulator of hemostasis and thrombosis. Surprisingly, concomitant lack of GPV and CLEC-2 deteriorated blood-lymphatic misconnections observed in Clec2-/- mice resulting in severe edema formation and intestinal inflammation. Analysis of lymphatic and vascular development in embryonic mesenteries revealed severely defective blood-lymph-vessel separation, which translated into thrombocytopenia and increased vascular permeability due to reduced tight junction density in mesenteric blood vessels and consequent leakage of blood into the peritoneal cavity.Recently, platelet granule release has been proposed to ameliorate the progression of retinopathy of prematurity (ROP), a fatal disease in newborns leading to retinal degradation. The mechanisms governing platelet activation in this process remained elusive nonetheless, which prompted us to investigate a possible role of ITAM signaling. In the second part of this thesis, granule release during ROP was shown to be GPVI- and partly CLEC-2-triggered since blockade or loss of these receptors markedly deteriorated ROP progression.Proplatelet formation from MKs is highly dependent on a functional microtubule and actin cytoskeleton, the latter of which is regulated by several actin-monomer binding proteins including Cofilin1 and Twinfilin1 that have been associated with actin-severing at pointed ends. In the present study, a redundancy between both proteins especially important for the guided release of proplatelets into the bloodstream was identified, since deficiency in both proteins markedly impaired MK functionality mainly due to altered actin-microtubule crosstalk.Besides ITAM-triggered activation, platelets and MKs are dependent on inhibitory receptors, which prevent overshooting activation. We here identified macrothrombocytopenic mice with a mutation within Mpig6b encoding the ITIM-bearing receptor G6b-B. G6b-B-mutant mice developed a severe myelofibrosis associated with sex-specific bone remodeling defects resulting in osteosclerosis and -porosis in female mice. Moreover, G6b-B was shown to be indispensable for MK maturation as verified by a significant reduction in MK-specific gene expression in G6b-B-mutant MKs due to reduced GATA-1 activity." @default.
