High-fat diet disturbs lipid raft/TGF-β signaling-mediated maintenance of hematopoietic stem cells in mouse bone marrow
High fat diets (HFD) are thought to perturb murine hematopoiesis as a result of obesity. Here the authors find that short-term HFD reduces hematopoietic stem cells (HSC), disrupts lipid rafts and TGF-β1 signalling. Injecting HFD-fed mice with recombinant TGF-β1 can rescue HSC loss.
