  • Title: [Regulation of thrombocytopoiesis studied by a mathematical model].
    Author: Selivanov VA, Tiazhelova VG.
    Journal: Tsitologiia; 1984 Mar; 26(3):348-52. PubMed ID: 6729997.
    Abstract:
    A mathematical model of thrombocytopoiesis is proposed which accounts for the recent data on its regulation. It is shown that the compensatory response of the system to a decrease in the level of thrombocytes in the blood is controlled by the total amount of thrombocytes and megakaryocytes. The proliferation intensity of megakaryocytes and the total number of thrombocytes reveal, respectively, a lineary and a logarithmical dependence on the total number of thrombocytes and megakaryocytes. The limits of the post-transfusion level of thrombocytes are defined, within which the thrombocytopoiesis is controlled only by the number of thrombocytes. The values of parameters characterizing the behaviour of the thrombocytopoiesis system are calculated.
