Abstract excerpt
Unremitting blood cell production throughout the lifetime of an organism is reliant on hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs). A rare and relatively quiescent cell type, HSCs are, on entry into cell cycle fated to self-renew, undergo apoptosis or differentiate to progenitors (HPCs) that eventually yield specific classes of blood cells. Disruption of these HSC fate decisions is considered to be fundamental to the...
