| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) possess self-renewal and pluripotential capacity for the maintenance 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 investigated about an orphan receptor Tie1. The forced expression of Tie1 had no effect on the cell growth and the gene expression patterns. Interestingly, some molecules induced the phosphorylation of Tie1, indicating the trans-activation of Tie1 in hematopoietic cells.
