The ability of any stem cell to self-renew and differentiate depends on the structural organization and cellular function of specialized anatomic microenvironments known as stem cell niches. These sequestered regions are typically populated by a supportive network of stromal cells. Stem cell niche stromal cells express soluble and membrane-bound proteins that regulate cell survival, proliferation, differentiation, and trafficking. Which statements is true about HSCs?
