title: Demonstration of a haemopoietic pluripotent stem cell adhesion molecule (HPSC-CAM) in mouse bone marrow.
abstract: In this paper the probable mechanism of the haemopoietic pluripotent stem cell (PSC) homing into the bone-marrow is investigated. Experiments were done to understand the role of fibronectin hexapeptide and ubiquitin. Attempts to isolate the PSC adherence molecule were made. A new adherence assay for PSC has been described.
