Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) are the stem cells [1] that give rise to other blood cells.This process is called haematopoiesis. [2] In vertebrates, the first definitive HSCs arise from the ventral endothelial wall of the embryonic aorta within the (midgestational) aorta-gonad-mesonephros region, through a process known as endothelial-to-hematopoietic transition.
This pathway is also essential for HSC self-renewal because it promotes maintenance of the stem cell population. [26] FAO promotes asymmetric HSC division to produce one progenitor and one stem cell. Inhibition of FAO has been shown to expand the population of progenitor cells, thus decreasing the stem cell population. [ 27 ]
KSL cells in cell biology are an early form of mouse/murine hematopoietic stem cells.Characteristics are Kit (+), Sca-1 (+) and Lin (-). HSCs [Hematopoietic stem cells] in murine cultures show phenotypic markers as being CD34-, CD150+, and Flt3- for LTR [long-term reconstitution].
Many human blood cells, such as red blood cells (RBCs), immune cells, and even platelets all originate from the same progenitor cell, the hematopoietic stem cell (HSC). [1] As these cells are short-lived, there needs to be a steady turnover of new blood cells and the maintenance of an HSC pool.
Cell biology (also cellular biology or cytology) is a branch of biology that studies the structure, function, and behavior of cells. [1] [2] All living organisms are made of cells. A cell is the basic unit of life that is responsible for the living and functioning of organisms. [3] Cell biology is the study of the structural and functional ...

Cell biology – A branch of biology that includes study of cells regarding their physiological properties, structure, and function; the organelles they contain; interactions with their environment; and their life cycle, division, and death.
Irving Weissman's group at Stanford University was the first to isolate mouse hematopoietic stem cells in 1986 [12] [13] and was also the first to work out the markers to distinguish the mouse long-term (LT-HSC) and short-term (ST-HSC) hematopoietic stem cells (self-renew-capable), and the Multi-potent progenitors (MPP, low or no self-renew ...
