How bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) regulate haematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) later in development is unclear. Crisan et al.show that long-term repopulating HSCs in murine fetal liver and the bone marrow are of two types: either BMP activated or non-BMP activated, which correlate with different lineage outputs.
