| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Hematopoietic organs differed among aquatic and land animals. In mammals, there are two niches to maintain hematopoiesis in bone marrow, osteoblastic niche on bone surface and vascular niche around sinusoid vessels in bone marrow. We found that hematopoiesis is localized on the only bone surface in xenopus, suggesting that only osteoblast niche is developed in xenopus. These results prompted us to explore development of osteoblastic niche during vertebrate evolution. In the present study, we revealed the following findings. 1) Hematopoietic cell localized on only the bone surface of bone marrow. 2) During bone regeneration, hematopoiesis also occurred newly formed bone surface. 3) There are no definite Harvasian canals in cortical bone, indication blood vessels communication between inside and outside of bone marrow i.e. very poor in Xenopus. 4) We are now investingation the changes in distribution of hematopoietic cells on bone surface after inject of 5=FU in Xenopus.
