Population snapshots predict early haematopoietic and erythroid hierarchies

BK Tusi, SL Wolock, C Weinreb, Y Hwang, D Hidalgo… - Nature, 2018 - nature.com

Planarian stem cells specify fate yet retain potency during the cell cycle

AA Raz, O Wurtzel, PW Reddien - Cell stem cell, 2021 - cell.com
Planarian whole-body regeneration is enabled by stem cells called neoblasts. At least some
neoblasts are individually pluripotent. Neoblasts are also heterogeneous, with …

The molecular signature of megakaryocyte-erythroid progenitors reveals a role for the cell cycle in fate specification

YC Lu, C Sanada, J Xavier-Ferrucio, L Wang… - Cell reports, 2018 - cell.com
Megakaryocytic-erythroid progenitors (MEPs) give rise to the cells that produce red blood
cells and platelets. Although the mechanisms underlying megakaryocytic (MK) and erythroid …
