## Abstract We recently identified a murine hemopoietic stem cell colony which consists of undifferentiated (blast) cells and appears to be more primitive than CFUβGEMM in the stem cell hierarchy. The progenitors for the colony which we termed βstem cell colonyβ possess an extensive selfβrenewal ca

β¦ Synopsis
The probability of a colony which originated as a single stem cell to become extinct due to differentiation of all of its stem cells in any generation is closely connected to stem cell self renewal probability p . p can be determined from the coefficient of variation of the colony numbers received by reinjecting single colonies of the same age. Whole spleens containing a known average colony number can also be used with advantage for this purpose. The results of both procedures indicate a stem cell self renewal probability p = 0.62 ? 0.04, which does not change significantly between the sixth and the fourteenth day of colony development, and an extinction probability w = 0.63 f 0.12.

## Abstract Cyclinβdependent kinase 1 (Cdk1) is indispensible for the early development of the embryo. However, its role in maintaining the undifferentiated state of the embryonic stem (ES) cells remains unknown. In this study, we dissected the function of Cdk1 in mouse ES cells by RNAβinterference
## Abstract Fetal spleen stem cells have growth characteristics similar to those of normal adult spleen stem cells. On the contrary there is an early fetal liver stem cell population which possesses a lag time longer than that of adult stem cells. The duration of the lag time is controlled by a bui
