While research has uncovered many details about how blood cells function within bone marrow, the work of other cells existing in that space remained a relative mystery. Now, researchers from the ...

Researchers recently developed a bone marrow model to study how the body generates cells. Interestingly, this model is the first of its kind to be developed entirely from human cells. Not only can ...

Our body’s “blood factory” consists of specialized tissue made up of bone cells, blood vessels, nerves and other cell types. Now, researchers have succeeded for the first time in recreating this ...

Researchers in Brazil have developed a graphene-based scaffold derived from industrial waste that attracted bone cells and promoted fracture repair in laboratory and animal tests. The work, published ...

Our bone marrow the fatty, jelly-like substance inside our bones is an unseen powerhouse quietly producing 500 billion new blood cells every day. That process is driven by hematopoietic stem cells ...

Red blood cells carry oxygen from the lungs to every other organ, and blood-forming stem cells must make about 200 billion new red blood cells each day to keep the oxygen flowing. For many years, ...

A bone marrow transplant, or stem cell transplant, places blood stem cells back into the body. The transplant replaces cells that cancer or treatments have destroyed. People may have a bone marrow ...

A bone marrow transplant process co-developed by investigators at the Johns Hopkins Kimmel Cancer Center is safe and curative for adults with sickle cell disease, according to results of a trial ...

Patients with elevated anti-HLA antibodies experienced significantly prolonged time to transplant — a median of 120 days ...
