A Cdc42/RhoA regulatory circuit downstream of glycoprotein Ib guides transendothelial platelet biogenesis

A Cdc42/RhoA regulatory circuit downstream of glycoprotein Ib guides transendothelial platelet biogenesis

Platelets derive from large precursor cells (megakaryocytes) in the bone marrow. Düttinget al. show that megakaryocyte polarization and platelet biogenesis in the bone-marrow sinusoids are directed by adhesion receptor GPIb signalling and resulting balanced antagonism between RhoA (stop-signal) and...
