A new study has given leukemia researchers a powerful new dataset and collection of analytical methods—and a starting point for future research. One common treatment for leukemia is hematopoietic stem ...

A bone marrow biopsy is a medical procedure used to collect a small sample of bone marrow, which is the soft, spongy tissue inside your bones where blood cells are made. This test helps a physician ...

In multiple myeloma, abnormal plasma cells build up inside bone marrow -- the spongy tissue inside large bones where blood cells are produced. Over time, myeloma cells cause damage to bones, kidneys, ...

Researchers at the University of California, Santa Cruz, have identified a key molecule for establishing blood stem cells in their niche within the bone marrow. The findings, reported in the January ...

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, ...

Researchers have developed a platform that emulates human bone marrow's native environment. This breakthrough addresses a critical need in medical science, as animal studies often fail to fully ...
