The limited number of human hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) has restrained their widespread clinical application. Despite great efforts in recent years, the vitro expansion HSCs remains a challenge due to incomplete understanding signaling networks underlying HSC self-renewal. Here, we show that culturing cord blood (CB) CD34+ with JNK-IN-8, an inhibitor JNK pathway, can enhance self-renewal 3.88-fold increase cell number. These cultured repopulated recipient mice for 21 weeks and form...
