Deskripsi
Platelets derive from large precursor cells (megakaryocytes) in the bone marrow. Düttinget al. show that megakaryocyte polarization and platelet biogenesis in the bone-marrow sinusoids are directed by adhesion receptor GPIb signalling and resulting balanced antagonism between RhoA (stop-signal) and Cdc42 (go-signal).
