Abstract

New findings in this issue of Cell Stem Cell by Qian et al. (2007) and Yoshihara et al. (2007) reveal that thrombopoietin modulates hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) cell-cycle progression at the osteoblast surface, linking a single cytokine with a specific postnatal niche cell. These observations indicate that simultaneous stimulation and suspension in a G(0) state are critical for maintenance of the HSC pool.
