Bone marrow (BM) transplantation still must overcome multiple difficulties and should benefit
from better understanding of stem-cell homing and mobilization. Here, we analyzed the …

Investigations of the homing of transplanted hemopoietic cells into preconditioned recipients
have in most studies been referable to parameters that determine engraftment. The …

Efficient bone marrow (BM) homing is a prerequisite for successful engraftment of
transplanted hematopoietic cells (HPCs). Contradictory conclusions about the contribution of …

Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation is the most powerful treatment modality for a large
number of hematopoietic malignancies, including leukemia. Successful hematopoietic …

Selective lodgement or homing of transplanted hemopoietic stem cells in the recipient's
bone marrow (BM) is a critical step in the establishment of long-term hemopoiesis after BM …

The adhesive mechanisms allowing hematopoietic progenitor cells (HPC) homing to the
bone marrow (BM) after BM transplantation are poorly understood. We investigated the role …

All mature blood cells are derived from the haemopoietic stem cell (HSC). In common with
all other haemopoietic cells, stem cells are mobile, and it is this property of mobility that has …

The nature and exact function of selectin ligands involved in hematopoietic progenitor cell
(HPC) homing to the bone marrow (BM) are unclear. Using murine progenitor homing …

The success of stem cell transplantation depends on the ability of iv infused stem cells to
engraft the bone marrow, a process referred to as homing. Efficient homing requires …

Several components of the essential process of stem cell homing have now been
characterized. Cell adhesion molecules and their ligands, extracellular matrix components …
