The Transcription Factor EGR1 Controls Both the Proliferation and Localization of Hematopoietic Stem Cells

TL;DR: The ability of this single factor to regulate both proliferation and mobilization of HSCs suggests that EGR1 commands a genetic program that coordinates stem cell division and migration to maintain appropriate HSC number and function.
Journal ArticleDOI

Transcriptome Analysis Identifies Regulators of Hematopoietic Stem and Progenitor Cells

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors performed transcriptome analysis of stem cells and their proximal progenitors to improve the molecular understanding of HSCs and to identify genes involved in transcriptional regulation, including a group of putative transcriptional repressors.
Book ChapterDOI

Hematopoietic Stem Cells and Somatic Stem Cells

TL;DR: Though adult stem cells exist at a very low frequency in adult tissues, they serve a critical function in maintaining tissue homeostasis and generating replacement cells to repair tissues after injury.
