Definitions

• TPO thrombopoietin
• Thrombopoietin is a 332-amino acid glycosylated polypeptide which plays a key role in the regulation of megakaryocytopoiesis, the process in which platelets are produced from bone marrow megakaryocytes.
• TPO Thrombopoietin
• TPO is produced in the liver but exerts its main function in the bone marrow, where it stimulates the differentiation of stem cells into megakaryocyte progenitors as well as megakaryocyte proliferation, polyploidization and, ultimately, their fragmentation into circulating platelet bodies.
• TPO is also the primary regulator of situations involving thrombocytopenia and has been shown in a number of studies to increase platelet counts, increase platelet size, and increase isotope incorporation into platelets of recipient animals. See, e.g., Metcalf Nature 369:519-520 (1994).
• TPO is thought to affect megakaryocytopoiesis in several ways: (1) it produces increases in megakaryocyte size and number; (2) it produces an increase in DNA content, in the form of polyploidy, in megakaryocytes; (3) it increases megakaryocyte endomitosis; (4) it produces increased maturation of megakaryocytes; and (5) it produces an increase in the percentage of precursor cells, in the form of small acetylcholinesterase- positive cells, in the bone marrow.
• TPO has potential useful application in both the diagnosis and the treatment of various hematological disorders, for example, diseases primarily due to platelet defects.
• TPO has potential application in the treatment of thrombocytopenic conditions, especially those derived from chemotherapy, radiation therapy, or bone marrow transplantation as treatment for cancer or lymphoma. Indeed, ongoing clinical trials in cancer patients have shown that recombinant human TPO is effective in decreasing the platelet nadir and enhancing platelet recovery when given with high-dose carboplatin chemotherapy. See Basser Blood, 1997, 89: 3118.
• peg-MGDF pegylated megakaryocyte differentiation factor
• TPO mimetic Because the slow recovery of platelet levels in patients suffering from thrombocytopenia is a serious problem, it would be desirable to provide compounds which allow for the treatment of thrombocytopenia by acting as a TPO mimetic.
• TPO peptide mimetics A few years ago, the development of TPO peptide mimetics was reported (WO 96/4018, WO 96/40750, WO 98/25965). These peptides were designed to bind and activate the TPO-R but have no sequence homology to the natural TPO. In recent years, a number of small-molecule agents with TPO mimetic activity been reported.
