Abstract excerpt
STAT3 is a key downstream signaling intermediate of gp130, a receptor previously shown to activate hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) self-renewal divisions. These findings prompted us to investigate if the STAT3 pathway is important to HSC activity in vivo. Initial semi-quantitative RT-PCR analyses showed STAT3 to be expressed at slightly higher levels in primitive subsets of both human and murine adult bone marrow...
