Thrombopoietin (TPO) is a 332-amino-acid glycoprotein primarily produced in the liver and is the key physiological regulator of platelet production. It binds to the TPO receptor, activating the JAK-STAT signaling pathways to stimulate megakaryocyte growth and platelet formation. Research has also shown that TPO plays a crucial role in hematopoietic recovery following myeloablation, with its transcripts expressed by multiple cell types.
