Abstract

Making Immune Cells Young Again: Hematopoiesis, the development of the immune system, occurs in distinct waves. The immune system is first populated by cells that arise from fetal hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) and then later by cells derived from adult HSCs. Furthermore, fetal HSCs give rise to lymphocytes with innate immunelike properties, whereas adult HSCs give rise to classical T and B cells. Yuan et al. (p. 1195 , published online 16 February) now uncover the molecular mechanism behind these distinct waves of hematopoiesis. Expression of the RNA binding proteins Lin28 and Lin28b is enriched in fetal hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells (HSPCs) in mice and humans. Ectopic expression of Lin28 in mouse adult HSPCs was sufficient to induce the differentiation of both classical and innate-like lymphocyte lineages.

  • This difference is now understood to be intrinsically programmed and due to an altered pathway of differentiation in the first-wave cells, which results in T-cell lineage commitment even before entry into the thymus.

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.
