GSE143567: Transcriptomic characterisation of phenotypic haematopoietic stem cells from human adult bone marrow, spleen and peripheral blood

Bulk RNA sequencing

Haematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) and multipotent progenitors (MPPs), the precursors of all blood cells, reside predominantly in the bone marrow (BM). Recent evidence suggests that other anatomical sites may contribute significantly to blood production, but the cellular, molecular and functional composition of extramedullary HSC/MPP pools remains unexplored. Here, we have compared the transcriptomes of single cells sorted from the phenotypic HSC/MPP pool of adult bone marrows and spleens from the same donors.
