Abstract excerpt
Severe aplastic anemia (SAA) results from profound hematopoietic stem cell loss. T cells and interferon gamma (IFNγ) have long been associated with SAA, yet the underlying mechanisms driving hematopoietic stem cell loss remain unknown. Using a mouse model of SAA, we demonstrate that IFNγ-dependent hematopoietic stem cell loss required macrophages. IFNγ was necessary for bone marrow macrophage persistence, despite...
