The role of mitochondria in hematopoietic stem cell self-renewal
Abstract Hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) sustain the production of all blood and immune cells throughout life by differentiating into all blood lineages and regenerate long-lived HSC, ie self-renew. However, although HSC have high regenerative potential, the actual capacity of ‘self-renewal’, ie regenerating a daughter cell that has identical properties’ is limited. It is known that HSC progressively lose regenerative potential with divisional history. A clear understanding of the mechanism responsible for HSC functional decline under homeostatic conditions is still lacking. This lack of knowledge has hampered our ability to maintain HSC functions through divisions. The overall goal of this…
