Introducción Las células madre hematopoyéticas son las responsables de la formación de células sanguíneas especializadas durante toda la vida. Para ello, estas células deben tener la capaci- dad de auto-renovación, así como de diferenciación hacia los distintos tipos celulares. La capacidad de autorenova- ción indefinida es la que diferencia a estas células de los progenitores multipotentes. Históricamente se han desarro- llado diversas técnicas para caracterizar y distinguir las células madre de otros precursores hematológicos indife- renciados. Actualmente, se considera que una célula madre hematopoyética es aquella que es capaz de reconstitutir la hematopoyesis al ser transplantada a un organismo inmu- nodeprimido1. Estas células residen en la médula ósea de una persona adulta y se perpetúan mediante auto-replica- ción. Sin embargo, en algún momento debe existir un pre- cursor a partir del cual las células madre del adulto se generan. Actualmente hay evidencias de que esta célula precursora existe, al menos, durante la vida embrionaria, ya que se ha demostrado que las células hematopoyéticas de un ratón adulto provienen de un precursor con caracte- rísticas endoteliales (VE-cad+ aunque también Runx+) que se formó durante el desarrollo embrionario y que muy pro- Figura 1 : La gráfica muestra el porcentaje de células hematopoyéticas b-galacto- bablemente coincide con el denominado hemangioblasto2- sidasa+ en un ratón adulto que provienen de unos precursores marcados a dis- 5.

Introduction Platelets are anucleate cells that circulate in the bloodstream for approximately 10 days. The average adult must produce roughly 1 x 10 11 platelets per day to maintain normal platelet counts, a level of production that increases dramatically in a variety of clinical scenarios (1). In 1906, Wright provided the first evidence that megakaryocytes give rise to blood platelets. Since then, our understanding of the molecular basis of thrombopoiesis has progressed substantially and is arguably in a logarithmic growth phase. This chapter will review our current understanding of thrombopoiesis and highlight how the field is evolving. The history of megakaryocytes and platelets is fairly young. In 1841, Addison first described platelets and in 1882, Bizzozero named and identified platelets in the circulation and determined that they could induce clotting. In 1890, Howell named megakaryocytes, and 16 years later, Wright discovered that these were actually the precursors of platelets. Thus, the late 1880’s and early 1900’s were a period of prolific activity in the elucidation of megakaryocytes. Several discoveries were made about platelets and also about erythropoietin, which implied that a humoral substance also regulated platelet production though its exact nature was not yet known.

  • COMPARISON of the WHO ATC CLASSIFICATION & Ephmra/Intellus Worldwide ANATOMICAL CLASSIFICATION
    COMPARISON OF THE WHO ATC CLASSIFICATION & EphMRA/Intellus Worldwide ANATOMICAL CLASSIFICATION November 2020 Comparison of the WHO ATC Classification and EphMRA / Intellus Worldwide Anatomical Classification The following booklet is designed to improve the understanding of the two classification systems. The development of the two systems had previously taken place separately. EphMRA and WHO are now working together to ensure that there is a convergence of the 2 systems rather than a divergence. In order to better understand the two classification systems, we should pay attention to the way in which substances/products are classified. WHO mainly classifies substances according to the therapeutic or pharmaceutical aspects and in one class only (particular formulations or strengths can be given separate codes, e.g. clonidine in C02A as antihypertensive agent, N02C as anti-migraine product and S01E as ophthalmic product). EphMRA classifies products, mainly according to their indications and use. Therefore, it is possible to find the same compound in several classes, depending on the product, e.g., NAPROXEN tablets can be classified in M1A (antirheumatic), N2B (analgesic) and G2C if indicated for gynaecological conditions only. The purposes of classification are also different: The main purpose of the WHO classification is for international drug utilisation research and for adverse drug reaction monitoring. This classification is recommended by the WHO for use in international drug utilisation research. The EphMRA/Intellus Worldwide classification has a primary objective to satisfy the marketing needs of the pharmaceutical companies. Therefore, a direct comparison is sometimes difficult due to the different nature and purpose of the two systems. The aim of harmonisation is to reach a “full” agreement of all mono substances in a given class as listed in the WHO ATC Index, mainly at third level: whenever this is not possible, or harmonisation of third level is too difficult or makes no sense (e.g.
