Journal ArticleDOI

Arteriolar niches maintain haematopoietic stem cell quiescence

TL;DR: It is shown that quiescent HSCs associate specifically with small arterioles that are preferentially found in endosteal bone marrow, indicating that arteriolar niches are indispensable for maintaining HSC quiescence.
Journal ArticleDOI

Megakaryocytes regulate hematopoietic stem cell quiescence through CXCL4 secretion

TL;DR: It is shown that megakaryocytes (MKs) can directly regulate HSC pool size in mice, indicating that a terminally differentiated cell type derived from HSCs contributes to the HSC niche, directly regulating HSC behavior.
Journal ArticleDOI

Megakaryocytes Regulate Hematopoietic Stem Cell Quiescence Via PF4 Secretion

TL;DR: Mk depletion did not result in aberrant hematopoiesis as reflected by WBC and RBC counts in the peripheral blood and progenitor cell numbers in the BM that were indistinguishable from WT mice.
