Physiological Migration of Hematopoietic Stem and Progenitor Cells
Abstract
Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) reside predominantly in bone marrow, but low numbers of HSCs are also found in peripheral blood. We examined the fate of blood-borne HSCs using genetically marked parabiotic mice, which are surgically conjoined and share a common circulation. Parabionts rapidly established stable, functional cross engraftment of partner-derived HSCs and maintained partner-derived hematopoiesis after surgical separation. Determination of the residence time of injected blood-borne progenitor cells suggests that circulating HSCs/progenitors are cleared quickly from the blood. These data demonstrate that HSCs rapidly and constitutively migrate through the blood and play a physiological role in, at least, the functional reengraftment of unconditioned bone marrow.

Tissue architecture constrains the extent of clonal expansion within tissues such as gut or skin epithelium to patches that are rarely larger than a few square millimeters, but there is no such spatial restriction on HSCs, which freely admix throughout the bone marrow and body.
“First, tissue architecture constrains the extent of clonal expansion within tissues such as gut or skin epithelium to patches that are rarely larger than a few square millimeters 15, but there is no such spatial restriction on HSCs, which freely admix throughout the bone marrow and body 78.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
