Chromatin-modifying agents permit human hematopoietic stem cells to undergo multiple cell divisions while retaining their repopulating potential
21 Dec 2006
Abstract excerpt
Human hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) exposed to cytokines in vitro rapidly divide and lose their characteristic functional properties presumably due to the alteration of a genetic program that determines the properties of an HSC. We have attempted to reverse the silencing of this HSC genetic program by the sequential treatment of human cord blood CD34(+) cells with the chromatin-modifying agents,...
