Megakaryocyte/erythrocyte progenitor cells (MEPs), among other blood cells, are generated as a result of hematopoiesis, which occurs in the bone marrow. Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) can differentiate into one of two progenitor cells: the common lymphoid progenitor (CLP) and the common myeloid progenitor (CMP). MEPs derive from the common myeloid progenitor lineage. MEPs must commit to becoming either platelet-producing megakaryocytes via megakaryopoiesis or erythrocyte-producing erythroblasts via erythropoiesis. Most of the blood cells produced in the bone marrow during hematopoiesis come from MEPs.
