Engineering a BCR-ABL-activated caspase for the selective elimination of leukemic cells.
(Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A, 2013-02-05)Increased understanding of the precise molecular mechanisms involved in cell survival and cell death signaling pathways offers the promise of harnessing these molecules to eliminate cancer cells without damaging normal cells. ... -
Epidermal growth factor regulates hematopoietic regeneration after radiation injury.
(Nat Med, 2013-03)The mechanisms that regulate hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) regeneration after myelosuppressive injury are not well understood. We identified epidermal growth factor (EGF) to be highly enriched in the bone marrow serum of ... -
Ex vivo expansion of murine and human hematopoietic stem cells.
(Methods Mol Biol, 2014)Hematopoietic stem cells have the capacity to self-renew and give rise to the entirety of the mature blood and immune system throughout the lifespan of an organism. Here, we describe methods to isolate and culture murine ... -
Inflammation triggers emergency granulopoiesis through a density-dependent feedback mechanism.
(PLoS One, 2011)Normally, neutrophil pools are maintained by homeostatic mechanisms that require the transcription factor C/EBPα. Inflammation, however, induces neutrophilia through a distinct pathway of "emergency" granulopoiesis that ... -
Modeling hematopoietic system response caused by chronic exposure to ionizing radiation.
(Radiat Environ Biophys, 2011-05)A new model of the hematopoietic system response in humans chronically exposed to ionizing radiation describes the dynamics of the hematopoietic stem cell compartment as well as the dynamics of each of the four blood cell ... -
Protein tyrosine phosphatase-σ regulates hematopoietic stem cell-repopulating capacity.
(J Clin Invest, 2015-01)Hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) function is regulated by activation of receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs). Receptor protein tyrosine phosphatases (PTPs) counterbalance RTK signaling; however, the functions of receptor PTPs in ... -
Requirement for Lis1 in Normal and Malignant Stem Cell Renewal
(2013)Stem cells are defined by their ability to make more stem cells, a property known as self-renewal and their ability to generate cells that enter differentiation. One mechanism by which fate decisions can be effectively controlled ... -
Selective enhancement of donor hematopoietic cell engraftment by the CXCR4 antagonist AMD3100 in a mouse transplantation model.
(PLoS One, 2010-06-28)The interaction between stromal cell-derived factor-1 (SDF-1) with CXCR4 chemokine receptors plays an important role in hematopoiesis following hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. We examined the efficacy of post transplant ...
