Signaling of stem cell factor/c-kit receptor in the regulation of microglia
Signaling between sum cell factor (SCF) produced by stroma cells and its receptor, encoded by c-kit, expressed by stem cells or progenitor cells, is required for the normal development of hematopoietic, melanogenic, and gametogenic cell lineages. SCF and c-kit are also expressed in the nervous syste...
