The distribution of fluorescent daughter cells can be used to create a mathematical model of blood formation, which can provide new insights into the behavior of stem cells. (sciencedaily.com)
Scientists say this fundamental understanding of early development may also have an impact on other diseases that affect blood formation and supply. (sciencedaily.com)
«Until now, scientists had believed that in the normal state, very few stem cells — only about ten — are actively involved in blood formation.» (sciencedaily.com)
