Description
Summary:The<b> </b>interaction of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells with their direct neighboring cells in the bone marrow (the so called hematopoietic niche) evolves as a key principle for understanding physiological and malignant hematopoiesis. Significant progress in this matter has recently been achieved making use of emerging high-throughput techniques that allow characterization of the bone marrow microenvironment at single cell resolution. This review aims to discuss these single cell findings in the light of other conventional niche studies that together define the current notion of the niche’s implication in i) normal hematopoiesis, ii) myeloid neoplasms and iii) disease-driving pathways that can be exploited to establish novel therapeutic strategies in the future.
