Figure 6. Iron availability regulates HSC self-renewal and differentiation during regeneration.
(A–C) Neutrophils, Lin− cells, HSCs, and long-term reconstitution following BMT in mice fed with normal, iron-low or iron-deficient food, at day 12 after 5FU challenge (n= 8–11). See also Figure S7D–G.
(D–E) Neutrophils, Lin− cells, HSCs and HSC cell cycling in the BM of ABX-treated mice fed with normal, iron-low or iron-deficient food, at day 12 after 5FU treatment (n = 4–9).
(F–H) Neutrophils, Lin− cells, HSCs, and long-term reconstitution following BMT in control and ABX-treated mice injected with PBS or iron dextran, at day 12 after 5FU challenge (n = 5–14). See also Figure S7H–L.
