    mouse by swapping an scf gene with gfp. Scf gfp/gfp homozygous mice died perinatally and were found unable to regenerate blood cells. Scf gfp/+ mice demonstrated GFP expression primarily by perivascular cells surrounding sinusoids throughout the bone marrow (Fig.1h-m). Through gene expression profiling‚ ding and his team found that Scf-GFP+ cells form a perivascular niche for the HSCs. In order to determine whether Scf is necessary and required by adult hematopoietic stem cells‚ Scf expression
