Human HSCs appear first in the embryonic dorsal aorta, and only later in the yolk sac, liver, and placenta; a single human AGM region HSC can generate at least 300 daughter HSCs that are retransplantable into secondary recipient mice.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
