Hematopoietic Stem Cell

Molecular classification: Multipotent Stem Cell

Overview

Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) are immature, multipotent cells capable of developing into all types of blood cells. They are essential for hematopoiesis—the formation and replenishment of the entire blood system. HSCs are primarily found in the bone marrow and possess self-renewal and multilineage differentiation capabilities. HSC transplantation is a cornerstone therapy for various malignant and non-malignant diseases. Their unique biology, including quiescence regulation, is an active area of research with implications for aging, cancer risk, gene therapy approaches, and regenerative medicine.
