Abstract
Immune system function declines with age, a consequence of defects in hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs). Here the authors show that TAZ buffers age-related loss of PU.1 activity to maintain HSC functionality and identify the surface protein Clca3a1 as a marker of “young-like” HSCs, even in old mice.
