Schematic representation of the hematopoietic system with some of the miRNAs involved in its regulation. MiRNAs that block a specific stage are indicated in grey, whereas miRNAs that promote development are indicated in black. LT-HSC: long-term hematopoietic stem cell; ST-HSC: short-term hematopoietic stem cell; MPP: multipotent progenitors; CMP: common myeloid progenitor; CLP: common lymphoid progenitor; MEP: megakaryocyte-erythroid progenitor; GMP: granulocyte-macrophage progenitor; ErP: erythroid progenitor; MKP: megakaryocyte progenitor; RBC: red blood cells.
