Abstract

The main function of the microenvironment in the bone marrow (BM) is to provide signals that regulate and support the production of the billions of blood cells necessary to maintain homeostasis. The best characterized BM microenvironment is the niche that regulates hematopoietic stem cells. Efforts from many different laboratories have revealed that the niche is mainly perivascular and that blood vessels and perivascular stromal cells are the key components. In addition numerous cell types have been shown to be components of the niche. Here we discuss our current understanding of the niche and the evidence supporting the role of different types of cells in regulating hematopoietic stem cell numbers and function in vivo.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 2. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 06 December 2017.
All research outputs
#14,960,072
of 23,009,818 outputs
Outputs from Advances in experimental medicine and biology
#2,273
of 4,961 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#243,461
of 421,290 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Advances in experimental medicine and biology
#209
of 490 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,009,818 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 32nd percentile – i.e., 32% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 4,961 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a little more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 6.1. This one is in the 49th percentile – i.e., 49% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 421,290 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 39th percentile – i.e., 39% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 490 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 52% of its contemporaries.
