Bioactivity | TA-316 GMP (Megakaryocytes/platelets inducing agent GMP) is a chemically synthesized c-MPL (thrombopoietin receptor) agonist (CMA). TA-316 GMP promotes platelet production, and its activity is comparable to that of recombinant human thrombopoietin (rhTPO) in some respects. TA-316 GMP acts by binding to the c-MPL receptor, activating related signaling pathways such as JAK/STAT, MAPK, and PI3K/AKT, which are critical for the proliferation and maturation of megakaryocytes (MKs, platelet precursors). TA-316 GMP also specifically upregulates the expression of vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGFA) and fibroblast growth factor 2 (FGF2) both of which are associated with megakaryocyte maturation and platelet production. TA-316 GMP can be used in the study of platelet amplification[1]. |
