MeSH Heading: Thrombopoietin
Tree Number(s): D09.400.430.775.750; D12.644.276.374.410.240.750; D12.776.395.240.750; D12.776.467.374.410.240.750; D23.529.374.410.240.750
Unique ID: D013926
RDF Unique Identifier: http://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D013926
Scope Note: A humoral factor that stimulates the production of thrombocytes (BLOOD PLATELETS). Thrombopoietin stimulates the proliferation of bone marrow MEGAKARYOCYTES and their release of blood platelets. The process is called THROMBOPOIESIS.
