ACTN1 mutations cause congenital macrothrombocytopenia.
Congenital macrothrombocytopenia (CMTP) is a heterogeneous group of rare platelet disorders characterized by a congenital reduction of platelet counts and abnormally large platelets, for which… Expand

Mutation of the beta1-tubulin gene associated with congenital macrothrombocytopenia affecting microtubule assembly.
Congenital macrothrombocytopenia is a genetically heterogeneous group of rare disorders. We identified the first TUBB1 mutation, R318W, in a patient with congenital macrothrombocytopenia. The patient… Expand

Immunofluorescence Analysis of Neutrophil Nonmuscle Myosin Heavy Chain-A in MYH9 Disorders: Association of Subcellular Localization with MYH9 Mutations
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.
Congenital macrothrombocytopenia is a genetically heterogeneous group of rare disorders. αIIbβ3 has not been implicated in these conditions. We identified a novel, conserved heterozygous ITGA2B R995W… Expand

Identification of six novel MYH9 mutations and genotype-phenotype relationships in autosomal dominant macrothrombocytopenia with leukocyte inclusions
AbstractThe autosomal dominant macrothrombocytopenia with leukocyte inclusions, May-Hegglin anomaly (MHA), Sebastian syndrome (SBS), and Fechtner syndrome (FTNS), are rare platelet disorders… Expand

Patients with Epstein-Fechtner syndromes owing to MYH9 R702 mutations develop progressive proteinuric renal disease.
Recent linkage analyses of nondiabetic African-American patients with focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) have identified MYH9, encoding nonmuscle myosin heavy chain IIA (NMMHC-IIA), as a gene… Expand

Platelet diameters in inherited thrombocytopenias: analysis of 376 patients with all known disorders.
Abnormalities of platelet size are one of the distinguishing features of inherited thrombocytopenias (ITs), and evaluation of blood films is recommended as an essential step for differential… Expand

Mutations in the NMMHC-A gene cause autosomal dominant macrothrombocytopenia with leukocyte inclusions (May-Hegglin anomaly/Sebastian syndrome).
Macrothrombocytopenia with leukocyte inclusions is a rare autosomal dominant platelet disorder characterized by a triad of giant platelets, thrombocytopenia, and characteristic Döhle body-like… Expand

IL-1α induces thrombopoiesis through megakaryocyte rupture in response to acute platelet needs
An alternative pathway triggering enhanced platelet release from bone marrow megakaryocytes via a rupture-based mechanism is regulated by IL-1α in response to acute platelet requirements.

ANKRD26-related thrombocytopenia and myeloid malignancies.
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
