Mouse hematopoietic stem cell modification and labelling by transduction and tracking posttransplantation

Abstract

The tracking of the hematopoietic potential of genetically manipulated fluorescent hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) in the bone marrow (BM) allows the assessment of regulatory processes involved in the re-establishment of hematopoiesis posttransplant. Herein, we describe the means to assess the consequence of expressing specific genes in HSC on their engraftment potential posttransplant.
