Research Abstract |
Many tissue specific stem cells stay dormant. Therefore, the regulation of intracellular ATP is important for the control of the longevity or behaviors of stem cells. The LKB1-AMPK signaling functions as an intracellular energy sensor. To examine the role of LKB1 or AMPK in the regulatory system of hematopoietic stem cell, I analyzed LKB1- or AMPK-deficient hematopoietic stem cells. Our data demonstrated that LKB1 and AMPK contributed to the maintenance of hematopoietic stem cells.
