Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) reside in specialized microenvironments known as niches. The niche is essential to support HSC function and to maintain a correct balance between self-renewal and differentiation. Recent advances...
In 2013, a lightweight block cipher SIMON is proposed by NSA. This paper tries to investigate this design criterion in terms of resisting against impossible differential cryptanalysis. On one hand, starting from all the possible...
Golan K, Singh AK et al.1 describe how mitochondrial transfer from hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) to bone marrow (BM) mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) helps to regenerate the stroma and its capacity to sustain hematopoietic...
Because hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) were found to require a bone marrow (BM) habitat for long-term function, many studies have attempted to dissect key cellular and molecular interactions between HSCs and their BM...
In this issue of Blood, Zhao et al use a humanized mouse model to investigate the mechanisms driving daily oscillations in circulating human and murine leukocytes.1 In the same mice, they find human and murine circulating...
The bone marrow (BM) is the primary site of postnatal hematopoiesis and hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) maintenance. The BM HSC niche is an essential microenvironment which evolves and responds to the physiological demands of...
Hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) aging was originally thought to be essentially an HSC-autonomous process, which is the focus of another review in the same issue of Haematologica However, studies on the microenvironment that...
Mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs) are present in various body tissues and help in maintaining homeostasis. The stemness of MSCs has been evaluated in vitro. In addition, analyses of cell surface antigens and gene expression...

As for many other adult stem cells, the behavior of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) is subjected to circadian regulatory patterns. Multiple HSPC functions, such as proliferation, differentiation or trafficking...
In this review article, we present recent updates on the hematologic tumor microenvironment following the 3rd Scientific Workshop on the Haematological Tumour Microenvironment and its Therapeutic Targeting organized by the...
RATIONALE: The molecular mechanisms underlying the formation of coronary arteries during development and during cardiac neovascularization after injury are poorly understood. However, a detailed description of the relevant...
The contribution of cell-extrinsic factors in Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) generation and persistence has gained interest. Bitter taste receptors (TAS2Rs) are G protein-coupled receptors known for their primary role as a central...

AbstractThe sympathetic nervous system has been evolutionary selected to respond to stress and activates haematopoietic stem cells via noradrenergic signals. However, the pathways preserving...
Interleukin-1β (IL-1β) is a master regulator of inflammation. Increased activity of IL-1β has been implicated in various pathological conditions including myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs). Here we show that IL-1β serum levels...
Bone morphogenetic protein (Bmp) signaling is critical for organismal development and homeostasis. To elucidate Bmp2 function in the vascular/hematopoietic lineages we generated a new transgenic mouse line in which ectopic Bmp2...
