Salicylate Inhibits Thrombopoiesis in Rat Megakaryocytes by Changing the Membrane Micro-Architecture

Background/Aims: Salicylate causes drug-induced immune thrombocytopenia. However, some clinical studies indicate the presence of additional mechanisms in the drug-induced thrombocytopenia, by which the platelet production from megakaryocytes may directly be affected. Since salicylate is amphiphilic...
