| Research Abstract |
Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) are clonogenic cells which possess self-renewal capacity and pluripotency for the maintenance and the repair of whole blood system. The regulation of HSCs is very important for blood homeostasis, however, the precise molecular mechanisms regulating HSCs remain elusive. In this work, I focused on Tie1, a receptor tyrosine kinase which is expressed in HSCs. I had searched ligands of this orphan receptor to understand the function of Tie1. Several candidates were identified.
