The paper uses single-cell and spatial transcriptomics to study hematopoietic stem and progenitor cell diversity and their niches in zebrafish development.

The paper investigates the molecular mechanisms governing the emergence of pre-hematopoietic stem cells from the hemogenic endothelium in zebrafish embryos, showing that apicobasal polarity and junctional recycling play key roles in their morphodynamic complexity.

This study identifies Alcam and Pdgfr-α as critical for sclerotome-derived stromal cell development that supports hematopoiesis in zebrafish.

This study shows that Pcdh18a in stromal cell progenitors is essential for hematopoietic niche formation in zebrafish.
