 note = {Although stem cells are generally thought to be resistant to oxidative stress, the fact and in detail molecular mechanism are still to be clearly identified. We herein tried to understand the overall characterization of redox regulatory signaling in hematopoietic stem cells. We purified c-kit-positive hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells from the bone marrow of healthy mice, and then evaluated their redox regulatory property. Compared to the c-kit-negative matured mononuclear cells, c-kit-positive stem/progenitor cells showed lower basic levels of intracellular reactive oxygen species, faster clearance of the accumulated intracellular reactive oxygen species, and higher resistant to oxidative stress. An overall view on the gene expression profile associated with redox regulation showed to be widely differed between cell types. We confirmed that the c-kit-positive stem/progenitor cells expressed significantly higher of Nox1 and catalase, but less of lactoperoxidase than these matured mononuclear cells. Our data suggests that stem cells keep specific redox regulatory property for defensing against oxidative stress., Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 454(3), pp.376-380; 2014},
