A recent study in zebrafish presents a potentially important new system for studying the process of stem cell biology and hematopoiesis, the process by which blood is produced. The zebrafish has ...

They grew these cells in two environments: one containing erythropoietin (EPO), a hormone that stimulates red blood cell production which is increased after each blood donation, and another ...
