GATA-1 regulates the generation and function of basophils
28 Oct 2013
Abstract excerpt
Developmental processes of hematopoietic cells are orchestrated by transcriptional networks. GATA-1, the founding member of the GATA family of transcription factors, has been demonstrated to play crucial roles in the differentiation of erythroid cells, magakaryocytes, eosinophils, and mast cells. However, the role of GATA-1 in basophils remains elusive. Here we show that basophils abundantly express Gata1 mRNAs,...
