TL;DR: This genetic analysis provides physiological evidence of cross-talk between GTPase proteins and suggests that a balance of these two GTPases controls HSC/P adhesion and mobilization in vivo.
Abstract: Critical to homeostasis of blood cell production by hematopoietic stem/progenitor (HSC/P) cells is the regulation of HSC/P retention within the bone marrow microenvironment and migration between the bone marrow and the blood. Key extracellular regulatory elements for this process have been defined (cell-cell adhesion, growth factors, chemokines), but the mechanism by which HSC/P cells reconcile multiple external signals has not been elucidated. Rac and related small GTPases are candidates for this role and were studied in HSC/P deficient in Rac2, a hematopoietic cell-specific family member. Rac2 appears to be critical for HSC/P adhesion both in vitro and in vivo, whereas a compensatory increase in Cdc42 activation regulates HSC/P migration. This genetic analysis provides physiological evidence of cross-talk between GTPase proteins and suggests that a balance of these two GTPases controls HSC/P adhesion and mobilization in vivo.

TL;DR: It is concluded that in both primates and model organisms, stabilizing selection is likely to be the dominant mode of gene expression evolution, and mutations affecting gene expression will often be deleterious and might underlie many human diseases.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the tight-junction components claudin-3 and claud in-4 were 'preferentially' expressed in Aire+ mTECs, suggesting that Aire+, mTecs represent terminally differentiated cells in a unique lineage arising during thymic organogenesis.
Abstract: Medullary thymic epithelial cells expressing Aire represent a unique lineage derived from cells expressing claudin
