1 Deficiency of SMS1, but not SMS2, prevented SM production and enhanced phosphatidylserine (PS) externalization on the plasma membranes of platelets and megakaryocytes. Phosphatidylserines sphingomyelin synthase 1 Mus musculus
2 Deficiency of SMS1, but not SMS2, prevented SM production and enhanced phosphatidylserine (PS) externalization on the plasma membranes of platelets and megakaryocytes. Phosphatidylserines sphingomyelin synthase 1 Mus musculus
3 SMS1-KO tMEFs in which TMEM16F was knocked out using the CRISPR-Cas9 system lacked both the Ca2+ influx and excess PS exposure seen in SMS1-KO tMEFs. Phosphatidylserines sphingomyelin synthase 1 Mus musculus
4 Therefore, SM depletion on platelet membrane microdomains due to SMS1 deficiency enhanced PS externalization via a Ca2+ influx through TMEM16F activation, leading to elevated platelet clearance and causing hemostasis dysfunction through thrombocytopenia. Phosphatidylserines sphingomyelin synthase 1 Mus musculus
