Abstract
⺠Upregulation of tescalcin gene augments megakaryocyte development in K562 and HEL cells. ⺠Mice with targeted disruption of tescalcin gene were created. ⺠Platelet and megakaryocyte numbers are normal in tescalcin-knockout mice. ⺠Polyploidization and Fli-1 expression in megakaryocytes of tescalcin-knockout mice is normal. ⺠Tescalcin does not have an essential role in megakaryocyte differentiation in a murine model.
