[Megakaryocytopoiesis studied in a mathematical model. 4. Regulation of cell flow in a transit population].
The role of cells capable of formation of megakaryocytic colonies (CFUm) in regulation of thrombocytopoiesis was studied using a simulation model of megakaryocytopoiesis. The CFUm were shown to be the least differentiated cells involved in regulation of megakaryocytopoiesis in mice upon immune thrombocytopenia and after intravenous injection of hydroxyurea. A correlation was found between the CFUm population productivity and the number of cells in a transit population of the megakaryocytic line which makes it possible to reproduce experimental kinetics in the model. The duration of cell development from CFUm to megakaryocytes is about 3 days.
