ABSTRACT:
Methods for increasing hematopoietic cells, including platelets and erythrocytes, in patients receiving bone marrow or peripheral blood stem cell transplants are disclosed. The methods comprise administering to a donor an amount of thrombopoietin sufficient to stimulate proliferation of cells of the myeloid lineage, collecting cells from the donor, and administering the collected cells to a recipient patient. The recipient patient may be treated with additional thrombopoietin. The methods are useful within allogeneic and autologous transplantation procedures.
