The identification and characterization of zebrafish hematopoietic stem cells
18 May 2011
Abstract excerpt
HSCs are defined by their ability to self-renew and maintain hematopoiesis throughout the lifespan of an organism. The optical clarity of their embryos and the ease of genetic manipulation make the zebrafish (Danio rerio) an excellent model for studying hematopoiesis. Using flow cytometry, we identified 2 populations of CD41-GFP(+) cells (GFP(hi) and GFP(lo)) in the whole kidney marrow of Tg(CD41:GFP) zebrafish....
