Immunology: Blood lines redrawn
Thomas Graf1
Abstract
The generation of blood cells is a complex affair. As the culmination of several years of study by various investigators, the latest research will necessitate revision of textbook accounts of the process.
Red cells, white cells and platelets — on the face of it, the main components of blood look simple enough. All of them are ultimately produced from a common source, haematopoietic stem cells.
- Thomas Graf is at the Center for Genomic Regulation, Carrer Dr Aiguader 88, 08003 Barcelona, Spain.
