Abstract
Gamma interferon inducible lysosomal thiol reductase (GILT), is known to be involved in immunity, but its role in hematopoiesis has not been previously reported. Herein, we demonstrate using gilt knockout (−/−) mice that loss of gilt associates with decreased numbers and cycling status of femoral hematopoietic progenitor cells (CFU-GM, BFU-E, and CFU-GEMM) with more modest effects on splenic progenitor cells. Thus, GILT is associated with positive regulation of hematopoietic progenitor cells in mice, mainly in bone marrow.
