Therapeutic targeting and rapid mobilization of endosteal HSC using a small molecule integrin antagonist

Mobilizing haematopoietic stem cells to the peripheral blood has largely replaced bone marrow transplants as a strategy in the clinic. Here, Cao et al. report the use of an α9β1/α4β1integrin antagonist to induce rapid mobilization of blood stem cells from the bone marrow in a humanized mouse model....
