contents Harmine promotes megakaryocyte differentiation and thrombopoiesis by activating the Rac1/Cdc42/JNK pathway through a potential target of 5‐HTR2A Xiaoxi Liu Jia Lai Xiaoqin Zhang Anguo Wu Ling Zhou Yueyue Li Qianqian Huang Xinwu Huang Hua Li Cai Lan Jian Liu Feihong Huang Jianming Wu Phytotherapy Research AbstractHarmine (HM), a β‐carboline alkaloid extracted from plants, is a crucial component of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) known for its diverse pharmacological activities. Thrombocytopenia, a common and challenging hematological disorder, often coexists with serious illnesses. Previous research has shown a correlation between HM and thrombocytopenia, but the mechanism needs further elucidation. The aim of this study was to clarify the mechanisms underlying the effects of HM on thrombocytopenia and to develop new therapeutic strategies. Flow cytometry, Giemsa staining, and Phalloidin staining were used to assess HM's impact on Meg‐01 and HEL cell differentiation and maturation in vitro. A radiation‐induced thrombocytopenic mouse model was employed to evaluate HM's effect on platelet production in vivo. Network pharmacology, molecular docking, and protein blotting were utilized to investigate HM's targets and mechanisms. The results demonstrated that HM dose‐dependently promoted Meg‐01 and HEL cell differentiation and maturation in vitro and restored platelet levels in irradiated mice in vivo. Subsequently, HM was found to be involved in the biological process of platelet production by upregulating the expressions of Rac1, Cdc42, JNK, and 5‐HTR2A. Furthermore, the targeting of HM to 5‐HTR2A and its correlation with downstream Rac1/Cdc42/JNK were also confirmed. In conclusion, HM regulates megakaryocyte differentiation and thrombopoiesis through the 5‐HTR2A and Rac1/Cdc42/JNK pathways, providing a potential treatment strategy for thrombocytopenia. 10.1002/ptr.8317 http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/termsAndConditions#vor
