A theory of rapid evolutionary change explaining the de novo appearance of megakaryocytes and platelets in mammals
Platelets are found only in mammals. Uniquely, they have a log Gaussian volume distribution and are produced from megakaryocytes, large cells that have polyploid nuclei. In this Hypothesis, we propose that a possible explanation for the origin of megakaryocytes and platelets is that, ∼220 million ye...
