| Research Abstract |
Hematopoiesis is a dynamic and strictly regulated process orchestrated by self-renewing hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) and the supporting microenvironment. However, the exact mechanisms in which individual human HSCs involved to sustain hematopoietic homeostasis remain to be clarified. To understand how the long-term repopulating cell (LTRC) activity of individual human HSCs and the hematopoietic hierarchy are maintained in the BM microenvironment, we traced the repopulating dynamics of individual human HSC clones using viral integration site analysis. Our study provides a novel insight into repopulation dynamics, turnover, hierarchical structure and the cell cycle status of human HSCs in the recipient BM microenvironment.
