TNFα drives platelet hyperreactivity and thromboinflammation through regulation of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells.

Joshua I. Siner, Molly Brakhane, Kimsey Platten, Abigail Ajanel, Ei Thanda Tun, Lilian Antunes, Thomas Girard, Nina M. Lasky, Mary C. Fulbright, Christopher Letson, Yoon-A Kang, Craig N. Morrell, Stephen T. Oh, Jorge Di Paola

This study shows TNFα increases platelet reactivity and thromboinflammation by expanding and reprogramming hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells, not directly affecting megakaryocytes.

Neonatal Platelets Differentiate Monocytes to a Myeloid Derived Suppressor Cell Phenotype

Preeti Maurya, Daniel P. O’Reilly, Zachary T. Hilt, Alison C. Livada, Kathleen E. McGrath, Chen Li, Sara K. Ture, Michael W. Malloy, Ei Thanda Tun, James Palis, Craig N. Morrell

This study shows neonatal platelets induce monocytes to a Myeloid Derived Suppressor Cell phenotype, limiting T-cell activation, which may explain adverse outcomes of platelet transfusions in neonates.
