Megakaryocytopoiesis is a complex multistep process involving cell
division, endoreplication, and maturation and resulting in the release
of platelets into the blood circulation. Megakaryocytes (MK)
progressively express lineage-restricted proteins, some of which play
essential roles in platelet physiology. Glycoprotein (GP)Ib-V-IX (CD42)
and GPIIb (CD41) are examples of MK-specific proteins having receptor
properties essential for platelet adhesion and aggregation. This study
defined the progressive expression of the GPIb-V-IX complex during in
vitro MK maturation and compared it to that of GPIIb, an early MK
marker. Human cord blood CD34+ progenitor cells were
cultured in the presence of cytokines inducing megakaryocytic
differentiation. GPIb-V-IX expression appeared at day 3 of culture and
was strictly dependent on MK cytokine induction, whereas GPIIb was
already present in immature CD34+ cells. Analysis by flow
cytometry and of the messenger RNA level both showed that GPV appeared
1 day later than GPIb-IX. Microscopy studies confirmed the late
appearance of GPV, which was principally localized in the cytoplasm
when GPIb-IX was found on the cell surface, suggesting a delayed
program of GPV synthesis and trafficking. Cell sorting studies
revealed that the CD41+GPV+ population
contained 4N and 8N cells at day 7, and was less effective than
CD41+GPV cells in generating burst-forming
units of erythrocytes or MK colonies. This study shows that the
subunits of the GPIb-V-IX complex represent unique surface markers of
MK maturation. The genes coding for GPIb-IX and GPV are useful tools to
study megakaryocytopoiesis and for tissue-specific or conditional
expression in mature MK and platelets.
