Recent evidence suggests that osteoblastic bone marrow niche is vital for the maintenance and self-renewal of hematopoietic stem cells (HSC). It has been recently proposed that cholesterol efflux pathways participate in HSC mobilization and that cholesterol-sensing pathways control the proliferation of HSC progenitors. Moreover, we have recently documented that HDL perturbations result in impaired osteoblastic function in mice. In the present study, we aimed at investigating t...
