Обзор

Thrombocytopenia is a clinical problem defined by a platelet count lower than 150×10⁹/L. It can be linked to various pathologies of central origin, such as decreased platelet production in the bone marrow, or peripheral origin with increased platelet destruction through autoimmune mechanisms, increased splenic sequestration, or excessive platelet consumption. Significant fatigue is often reported in association with thrombocytopenia, but its underlying pathophysiology remains unclear. One hypothesis is the role played by neurotrophic factors contained in platelets and released into the circulation following their activation, in particular the Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF), which promotes the survival, growth, differentiation, and plasticity of neurons in both the central and peripheral nervous systems. Consequently, BDNF plays a key role in long-term memory, intellectual abilities, and neuroprotection. In this context, this project aims to confirm whether platelet-origin neurotrophic biomarkers could explain the fatigue experienced by thrombocytopenic patients and whether it depends on the etiology of the thrombocytopenia.

Подробное описание

Thrombocytopenia is defined as a platelet count below 150×109/L. The mechanisms leading to thrombocytopenia are multiple, and may be linked to :

* reduced platelet production in the bone marrow; * increased destruction of peripheral platelets; * increased splenic sequestration. In the event of a vascular breach, platelets contribute to hemostasis by sealing the lesion, thereby stopping bleeding. In thrombocytopenic patients, the best-known clinical signs are excessive mucocutaneous bleeding. Patients with severe thrombocytopenia (\< 20×109 /L) may be at risk of life-threatening bleeding (cerebral bleeding).

In the case of autoimmune thrombocytopenia, cognitive disorders have been reported, detected by appropriate questionnaires, the pathophysiological mechanism of which remains unclear. In a study of 1871 patients with thrombocytopenia, 39% of patients in the UK and 22% in the USA reported severe asthenia. Asthenia appears to be related to thrombocytopenia, but the mechanism has not been identified either. Asthenia is a recognized symptom in other autoimmune pathologies, such as primary biliary cirrhosis (autoimmune liver disease), in which asthenia has been shown to be mainly associated with autonomic nervous system dysfunction.

While thrombocytopenia is primarily associated with bleeding risk, at least half of thrombocytopenic patients report fatigue and impaired mental and emotional health and social functioning, even though anemia is corrected and the association with autoimmune disease does not explain fatigue in all thrombocytopenic patients.

The hypothesis is that thrombocytopenia is associated with a decrease in circulating neurotrophic factor levels through reduced platelet granule secretion, which may explain the fatigue.
