The marrow stem cell: the continuum.
The marrow hematopoietic stem cell is currently being redefined as to all aspects of its phenotype and its total differentiation capacity. This redefinition now includes its plasticity as to production of nonhematopoietic and hematopoietic cell types, the determinants of its in vivo engraftment potential and its expression of stem cell functional characteristics.
