Abstract

AbstractEmerging evidence suggests that all hematopoietic and endothelial cells originate from Flk-1+ mesoderm in the mouse. However, this concept has not been completely proven, especially for the origin of blood cells. Using either Flk1+/Cre;Rosa26R-EYFP or Flk1+/Cre;Rosa26R-LacZ mice, we permanently marked Flk-1+ cells and their progenies to determine the relationship between hematopoietic tissues and cells that express Flk-1. In embryos, all blood cells within the yolk sac and aorta were of Flk-1+ origin. In addition, nearly all CD45+ cells in bone marrow and circulating blood in adults were of Flk-1+ origin. These results provide clear evidence that all blood cells, primitive and definitive, in mice are derived from Flk-1+ mesodermal cells.
