Enrichment and purification of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) is important in transplantation therapies for hematologic disorders and in basic stem cell research. Primitive CD34+ HSPCs have demonstrated stronger rolling adhesion on selectins than mature CD34- mononuclear cells (MNCs). We have exploited this differential rolling behavior to capture and purify HSPCs from bone marrow by perfusing MNCs through selectin-coated microtubes.
