This is a beautiful figure, but I'm wondering why the 'Common Progenitor Cells' (CPC) are labeled as 'Stem Cells' and not 'Progenitor Cells'? My understanding is the CPC are ultimately transit cells and will not persist in that CPC state, unlike the HSC persisting in the in the stem cell state. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Strivingforknowledge (talk • contribs) 22:08, 8 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
