Deskripsi

How the environment of the niche regulates haematopoietic stem cells (HSC) is unclear. Here, the authors identify a mesenchymal stromal progenitor hierarchy and identify Sca1+ cells as common progenitors for mesenchymal stromal cells in the adult niche that provide a supportive environment for hematopoiesis.
