PTPσ inhibitors promote hematopoietic stem cell regeneration

Protein tyrosine phosphatase sigma (PTPσ) deficient haematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) demonstrate increased engraftment following transplantation. Here the authors identify a small molecule inhibitor of PTPσ that promotes murine and human haematopoietic stem cell regeneration via induction of the RAC...

Description
Summary:Protein tyrosine phosphatase sigma (PTPσ) deficient haematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) demonstrate increased engraftment following transplantation. Here the authors identify a small molecule inhibitor of PTPσ that promotes murine and human haematopoietic stem cell regeneration via induction of the RAC pathway and BCL-XL.
