Hematopoietic stem cells: New results to be presented at the 18th Congress of the EHA

During ageing, this fine-tuned regulatory network may become altered, leading to abnormal HSC regulation. The functional quality of HSCs decreases with age partly due to an accumulation of damaged DNA, leading to an increased incidence of hematological malignancies.
