Innate reaction of hematopoietic stem cells to severe infections
Medical Xpress Researchers at the University of Zurich have shown for the first time that hematopoietic stem cells detect infectious agents themselves and begin to divide—that is, without signals from growth factors. This direct production of defensive cells damages … |
