| Abstract | Whereas most hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) are quiescent in homeostasis, they actively proliferate in response to bone marrow (BM) injury. Signals from the BM microenvironment are thought to promote entry of HSC into the cell cycle. However, it has been cumbersome to assess cycle status of viable HSC and thus explore unique features associated with division. In this study, we show that expression of endothelial cell-selective adhesion molecule (ESAM) can be a powerful indicator of HSC activation. ESAM levels clearly mirrored the shift of HSC between quiescence and activation, and it was prominent in comparison with other HSC-related Ags. ESAM(hi) HSC were actively dividing, but had surprisingly high long-term reconstituting capacity. Immunohistochemical analyses showed that most ESAM(hi) HSC were located near vascular endothelium in the BM after 5-fluorouracil treatment. To determine the importance of ESAM in the process of BM recovery, ESAM knockout mice were treated with 5-fluorouracil and their hematopoietic reconstruction was examined. The ESAM deficiency caused severe and prolonged BM suppression, suggesting that ESAM is functionally indispensable for HSC to re-establish homeostatic hematopoiesis. With respect to intracellular regulators, NF-κB and topoisomerase II levels correlated with the ESAM upregulation. Thus, our data demonstrate that the intensity of ESAM expression is useful to trace activated HSC and to understand molecular events involved in stem cell states. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
