| 摘要 |
The invention includes compositions, kits, and methods for modulating survival and differentiation of mammalian multi-potential hematopoietic progenitor cells using a placental glycoprotein hormone of the murine prolactin family, namely either murine prolactin-like protein E or murine prolactin-like protein F. The compositions, kits, and methods described herein can be used, for example, for in vitro or ex vivo expansion of hematopoietic precursor cells or to treat a disorder associated with aberrant hematopoiesis (e.g., pre-eclampsia and thrombocytopenia). |
