The autosomal dominant macrothrombocytopenia with leukocyte inclusions, May-Hegglin anomaly, Sebastian syndrome, and Fechtner syndrome, are rare human disorders characterized by a triad of giant… Expand
Heterozygous ITGA2B R995W mutation inducing constitutive activation of the αIIbβ3 receptor affects proplatelet formation and causes congenital macrothrombocytopenia.

To the editor:
Since the discovery that mutations in the 5′ untranslated region (UTR) of ANKRD26 are responsible for an autosomal-dominant form of thrombocytopenia ( ANKRD26 -RT),[1][1] 21 affected… Expand
