Journal ArticleDOI

The distinct metabolic profile of hematopoietic stem cells reflects their location in a hypoxic niche

TL;DR: It is shown that LT-HSCs utilize glycolysis instead of mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation to meet their energy demands and that Meis1 regulates HSC metabolism through transcriptional activation of Hif-1alpha.
Journal ArticleDOI

Meis1 regulates the metabolic phenotype and oxidant defense of hematopoietic stem cells

TL;DR: It is demonstrated here that loss of Meis1 results in down-regulation of both Hif-1α and H if-2α in HSCs, which resulted in a shift to mitochondrial metabolism, increased reactive oxygen species production, and apoptosis of H SCs.
