Abstract excerpt
Hematopoietic progenitor cell (HPC) homeostasis is critical in maintaining innate immunity and healing processes. Recently, we demonstrated that Th1 cells regulate HPC homeostasis, partly based on altered homeostasis in Stat4- and Stat6-deficient mice. To explore changes in HPC responsiveness in altered T helper cell environments, we directly examined growth factor-stimulated colony formation and...
