description | Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) in bone marrow continuously supply a large number of blood cells throughout life in collaboration with hematopoietic progenitor cells (HPCs). HSCs and HPCs are thought to regulate and utilize intracellular metabolic programs to obtain metabolites, such as adenosine triphosphate (ATP), which is necessary for various cellular functions. Metabolites not only provide stem/progenitor cells with nutrients for ATP and building block generation but are also utilized for protein modification and epigenetic regulation to maintain cellular characteristics. In recent years, the metabolic programs of tissue stem/progenitor cells and their underlying molecular mechanisms have been elucidated using a variety of metabolic analysis methods. In this review, we first present the advantages and disadvantages of the current approaches applicable to the metabolic analysis of tissue stem/progenitor cells, including HSCs and HPCs. In the second half, we discuss the characteristics and regulatory mechanisms of HSC metabolism, including the decoupling of ATP production by glycolysis and mitochondria. These technologies and findings have the potential to advance stem cell biology and engineering from a metabolic perspective and to establish therapeutic approaches. |
