It is known that insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) also functions as a hematopoietic factor, although its direct effect on thrombopoiesis remains unclear. In this study, we show that IGF-1 is able to promote CD341 cell differentiation toward megakaryocytes (MKs), as well as the facilitation of proplatelet formation (PPF) and platelet production from cultured MKs. The in vivo study demonstrates that IGF-1 administration accelerates platelet recovery in mice after 6.0 Gy of irradiation and in mice that received bone marrow transplantation following 10.0 Gy of lethal irradiation. Subsequent investigations reveal that extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 (ERK1/2) and Akt activation mediate the effect of IGF-1 on thrombopoiesis. Notably, Akt activation induced by IGF-1 is more apparent than that of ERK1/2, compared with that of thrombopoietin (TPO) treatment. Moreover, the effect of IGF-1 on thrombopoiesis is independent of TPO signaling because IGF-1 treatment can also lead to a significant increase of platelet counts in homozygous TPO receptor mutant mice. Further analysis indicates that the activation of Akt triggered by IGF-1 requires the assistance of steroid receptor coactivator-3 (SRC-3). Therefore, our data reveal a distinct role of IGF-1 in regulating thrombopoiesis, providing new insights into TPO-independent regulation of platelet generation.
