Megakaryocyte in sepsis: the trinity of coagulation, inflammation and immunity
Abstract Background Megakaryocytes are traditionally recognized as cells responsible for platelet production. However, beyond their role in thrombopoiesis, megakaryocytes also participate in inflammatory responses and regulate immune system functions. Sepsis, characterized by life-threatening organ dysfunction due to a dysregulated response to infection, prominently features coagulopathy, severe inflammation, and immune dysfunction as key pathophysiological aspects. Aim […]
