Models of haemopoiesis.
To date, various models have been proposed to explain the diversification of haemopoietic stem cells along one of at least six pathways of differentiation. Consideration of evidence for and against particular models leads to the conclusion that a precise lineage map for the haemopoietic system is, as yet, unavailable. However, recently available cell and molecular biology techniques provide the means to resolve this problem.
