AGM hematopoietic stem cells are differentially regulated by BMP and Hedgehog signalling pathways
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: The first HSCs are produced in the aorta-gonadmesonephros (AGM) region of the embryo through endothelial to a hematopoietic transition. BMP4 and Hedgehog affect their production/expansion, but it is unknown whether they act to affect the same HSCs. In this study using the BRE GFP reporter mouse strain that identifies BMP/Smad-activated cells, we find that the AGM harbors two types of adult-repopulating HSCs upon explant culture.
