Kainate receptors coordinate primitive hematopoiesis and hemogenic niche organization to promote hematopoietic stem cell development

Margarita Parada-Kusz, Samuel J. Wattrus, Jacquelyn Jacobs…·Deborah Tan Hung

This study identifies kainate receptors' role in coordinating primitive hematopoiesis and hemogenic niche organization in zebrafish, showing their impact on hematopoietic stem cell development through endothelial Notch signaling.
