Updating and building upon previous editions, Hematopoietic Stem Cell Protocols, Third Edition provides up-to-date protocols from leading stem cell researchers. This in-depth volume presents a clear view of the landscape of assays available to the stem cell researcher working in the growing hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) field. A robust and active field, it is supported by an abundance of innovative mouse models and molecular tools for analysis of phenotypes and functions in mouse and human cells. Understanding more about hematopoietic stem cell biology is integral if these versatile cells are to be applied effectively to treat and cure a wide range of blood diseases. An introductory chapter puts the major contributions of the book into the proper perspective. Written in the successful Methods in Molecular Biology series format, chapters include introductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step, readily reproducible protocols, and notes on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls.Essential for the laboratory-based researcher, Hematopoietic Stem Cell Protocols, Third Edition is a much needed technical resource in the critically important field of hematopoietic stem cell investigation.

The hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) field has rapidly grown in the past several years as new technologies have been developed and the older tried and true methods have been used in new ways. Major advances in the isolation of HSC and progenitor subsets have been sparked by the gene expression array technologies, leading to the identification of new markers for prospective isolation. The first edition of Hematopoietic Stem Cell Protocols is a very thorough resource covering historically the basic techniques that have been published extensively over many years. To put together, a follow-up to this excellent book has been a hard act to follow. The intent of this book is to be distinct and not duplicate but to build on the strong basic assays and include updated approaches for the combination of phenotypic and functional analyses. This second edition of Hematopoietic Stem Cell Protocols thus aims to provide timely protocols developed in the HSC field since the last comprehensive review in this series. The approaches described in this book should be readily useful for the basic science researcher, especially those familiar with the use of mouse genetic models. The chapters in this book are geared toward the laboratory-based researcher and the development of pre-clinical studies to apply HSCs toward treating blood diseases more effectively.
