Abstract

The role of the Polycomb group gene Bmi1 in proliferation control of lymphoid and neuronal progenitors as well as in self-renewal of haematopoietic and neural stem cells has been recently demonstrated. Here we review these recent findings with particular regard to their implications for central nervous system development and tumorigenesis.
