FIG. 7.

Mk proplatelet formation in IMDM+20% BIT on a fibrinogen-coated surface. On day 7, selected Mks were resuspended in IMDM+20% BIT supplemented with 100 ng/mL thrombopoietin and 100 ng/mL SCF and seeded on fibrinogen-coated slides. On day 11, cells were fixed and stained for β-tubulin (green) and DNA (blue) before imaging. Scale bar=20 μm. Color images available online at www.liebertpub.com/tea
