  • The Fanconi anemia pathway restrains MLL-rearranged leukemogenesis through suppressing non-homologous end joining-mediated genomic instability

  • LepR+ niche cell-derived AREG compromises HSC maintenance under conditions of DNA repair deficiency and aging

  • Hematopoietic stem cell regeneration through paracrine regulation of the Wnt5a/Prox1 signaling axis

  • Chasing LSCs or LICs out of the protective BM niche improves the cytotoxic effect of the combo AraC+QC regimen in ALL therapy

  • Mesenchymal PGD2 activates an ILC2-Treg axis to promote proliferation of normal and malignant HSPCs

  • Hes1 deficiency causes hematopoietic stem cell exhaustion
