Since the discovery of the CD34 stem/progenitor cell antigen, considerable progress has been made in further purifying human lymphohematopoietic stem cells (HSC). These studies have identified a number of antigens which can be targeted to subfractionate the CD34(+) cell population. In particular, several lines of evidence suggest that the rare CD38(-) subpopulation of CD34(+) cells may be enriched in HSC. This review briefly summarizes relevant knowledge concerning the CD38 molecule and the results of in vitro and in vivo studies of CD34(+)38(-) cells. Possible clinical uses for purified CD34+38- cells are outlined.
