Aberrant Engagement of P-selectin Drives Hematopoietic Stem Cell Aging in Mice

1. Research Background and Scientific Problem The health of the hematopoietic system is crucial to the proper functioning of the body, with hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) at its core in maintaining normal blood system operation. HSCs possess self-renewal and multipotent differentiation abilities, capable of generating all types of blood cells, inc...

Critical Role of the Potential O-Linked Glycosylation Sites of CXCR4 in Cell Migration and Bone Marrow Homing of Hematopoietic Stem Progenitor Cells

1. Academic Background and Research Origin Hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells (HSPCs) are the foundation for maintaining the steady state of the adult blood system. Every day, the human body needs to generate billions of new blood cells—a process that relies on the capacity of HSPCs for self-renewal and directed differentiation within the bone mar...
