Interleukin-1 alpha (IL-1α) is a pro-inflammatory cytokine and a known mediator of emergency thrombopoiesis. However, its effect on MK maturation in vitro has not been studied in detail OBJECTIVES: We aimed to investigate the phenotypical and molecular consequences of IL-1α-based MK maturation METHODS: Murine bone marrows were cultured in the presence of IL-1α in addition to thrombopoietin (TPO) in vitro and analyzed for MK maturation at days 3 and 5 of culture. Furthermore, proteome analysis of MK cultured with IL-1α and/or TPO was performed RESULTS: IL-1α induced differentiation of a greater number of larger MKs with higher ploidy, increased the release of platelet-like particles (PLP), but had decreased expression of maturation markers. Interestingly, we found a significantly higher rate of emperipolesis, characterized by transiently present Ly6G+ neutrophils within the MK cytoplasm in early cultures, which was dependent on IL-1α. At later stages, IL-1α-cultured MKs were morphologically indistinguishable from TPO-cultured MKs, although they kept the ability to produce more PLPs. Proteome analysis further revealed a significantly higher abundance of neutrophil-related proteins, antimicrobial peptides, and inflammation-related proteins in early-stage-IL-1α-cultured MKs, a pattern that persisted throughout late maturation.</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>Taken together, these results shed light on the modulatory role of IL-1α on MK maturation, influencing not only platelet biogenesis but also promoting emperipolesis and an immune-driven proteomic MK phenotype.</p>","PeriodicalId":17326,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Thrombosis and Haemostasis","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.0,"publicationDate":"2025-09-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145091873","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In preeclampsia (PE), a major cause of maternal and perinatal morbidity affecting 5-8% of pregnancies, excessive Th1/Th17 responses, reduced Treg activity, and heightened platelet activation drive systemic inflammation, endothelial dysfunction, and microvascular thrombosis is established. Platelets, beyond hemostasis, modulate immune responses by interacting with neutrophils, monocytes, and T-cells via mediators like P-selectin and CD40 ligand, promoting platelet-leukocyte aggregates, neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs), and pro-inflammatory cytokines (e.g., IL-6, TNF-α). These interactions amplify coagulation via tissue factor expression, creating a pathogenic immune-hemostatic feedback loop. Deficiencies in coagulation regulators like thrombomodulin and endothelial protein C receptor exacerbate platelet activation and embryonic lethality, while galectins (e.g., galectin-1, -3) may mediate platelet-immune crosstalk.
