Inducible CXCL12/CXCR4–dependent extramedullary hematopoietic niches in the adrenal gland

Jessica Sordet, Aurélien Laurent Jean-Charles Oggier

Adult hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) reside in the bone marrow (BM) hematopoietic niche, which regulates HSPC quiescence, self-renewal, and commitment in a demand-adapted manner. Although the complex BM niche is responsible for adult hemat ...
