Description

Megakaryocytes (MK) are mainly derived from bone marrow (BM) and are mainly involved in platelet production. Recent studies have shown that MK derived from BM may have immune function, and that MK from peripheral blood (PB) are associated with prostate cancer. We analyzed more than 1.2 million single-cell transcriptome data from 132 samples of PB, BM, and cord blood (CB) from healthy individuals and patients, and obtained 4474 MK single cell and 14 MK subtypes. We found that MK were widely distributed and the amount of MK in PB was more than that in BM and there were specificity MK subtypes in PB. We found classical MK1 with typical MK characteristics and non-classical MK2 closely related to immunity which was the most common subtype in BM and CB. Classical MK1 was closely related to Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) and has diagnostic ability. MK2 may have potential adaptive immune function and play a role in tumor NSCLC and autoimmune diseases Systemic Lupus Erythematosus. This study deepened our understanding of MK and suggested that MK had potential immune functions and was involved in various diseases.
