Immune cells monitor blood platelet maturation in bone marrow, researchers discoverPlatelets play an essential role in wound healing. Underproduction can cause devastating bleeding, while overproduction increases the deadly risk of thromboses. Maintaining a constant level of platelets in the blood (homeostasis) is therefore vitally important. Platelets are continuously formed by megakaryocytes (MKs) and released into the blood.

Targeted drug treatment leads tumor cells to imitate viral infection, researchers discoverA number of cancers, including certain brain and liver tumors, as well as myeloid leukemias, are driven by mutations in the enzyme isocitrate dehydrogenase 1, or IDH1. Drugs that block mutated IDH1 (mIDH1) have recently come onto the market and effectively slow tumor growth, but the exact mechanism at work to stall tumors is still unclear.
