Colonial tunicates are marine organisms that possess multiple brains simultaneously during
their colonial phase. While the cyclical processes of neurogenesis and neurodegeneration …

The decline of tissue regenerative potential with the loss of stem cell function is a hallmark of
mammalian aging. We study Botryllus schlosseri, a colonial chordate which exhibits robust …

Background Hematopoiesis in mammal is a complex and highly regulated process in which
hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) give rise to all types of differentiated blood cells. Previous …

The transition of hematopoiesis from the fetal liver (FL) to the bone marrow (BM) is
incompletely characterized. We demonstrate that the Wiskott–Aldrich syndrome verprolin …

Hematopoiesis is the process whereby hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) proliferate and
differentiate to all blood cell lineages. While HSC commitment is known to be regulated by …
