Description
Recombinant Human Thrombopoietin (TPO) is a functional protein transiently expressed in HEK-293 cells with a C-terminal 6×His tag.
By retaining the N-terminal 1–174 amino acid residues of TPO (the EPO-homologous domain essential for bioactivity) and removing the non-essential C-terminal glycosylated region, its molecular weight is optimized to 18–23 kDa.
This protein specifically binds to the c-Mpl receptor and activates the JAK/STAT signaling pathway, playing a central role in hematopoietic stem cell culture and cell therapy applications.
It drives directed differentiation of hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells toward the megakaryocytic lineage, efficiently promoting in vitro expansion and maturation of megakaryocytes, as well as platelet production.
This provides critical support for establishing functional in vitro platelet production platforms, developing thrombocytopenia therapeutics, and advancing stem cell-based regenerative therapies.
