Constitutive HOXA5 Expression Inhibits Erythropoiesis and Increases Myelopoiesis From Human Hematopoietic Progenitors
15 Jul 1999
Abstract excerpt
The role of the homeobox gene HOXA5 in normal human hematopoiesis was studied by constitutively expressing the HOXA5 cDNA in CD34(+) and CD34(+)CD38(-) cells from bone marrow and cord blood. By using retroviral vectors that contained both HOXA5 and a cell surface marker gene, pure populations of progenitors that expressed the transgene were obtained for analysis of differentiation patterns. Based on both...
