Abstract
The microenvironment within the bone marrow that maintains hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) quiescence is the subject of intense study. In a recent Nature paper, Kunisaki et al. combine imaging techniques and computational modeling to define a novel arteriolar niche for quiescent HSCs within the bone marrow.
