Minireview: The Stem Cell Next Door: Skeletal and Hematopoietic Stem Cell “Niches” in Bone
24 May 2011
Abstract excerpt
Long known to be home to hematopoietic stem cells (HSC), the bone/bone marrow organ and its cellular components are directly implicated in regulating hematopoiesis and HSC function. Over the past few years, advances on the identity of HSC "niche" cells have brought into focus the role of cells of osteogenic lineage and of marrow microvessels. At the same time, the identity of self-renewing multipotent skeletal...
