Erythro-myeloid progenitors (EMP) serve as a major source of hematopoiesis in the developing conceptus prior to the formation of a permanent blood system. In this review, we summarize the current knowledge regarding the emergence, fate, and potential of this hematopoietic stem cell (HSC)-independent wave of hematopoietic progenitors, focusing on the murine embryo as a model system. A better understanding of the temporal and spatial control of hematopoietic emergence in the embryo will ultimately improve our ability to derive hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells from embryonic stem cells and induced pluripotent stem cells to serve therapeutic purposes.
红骨髓祖细胞(EMP)是胚胎发育过程中造血系统形成之前造血的主要来源。在这篇综述中,我们总结了目前关于这种造血干细胞(HSC)独立的造血祖细胞波出现、命运和潜力的知识,重点是作为模型系统的鼠胚胎。更好地理解胚胎中造血出现的时空控制最终将提高我们从胚胎干细胞和诱导多能干细胞中获得造血干细胞和祖细胞以用于治疗目的的能力。
