University of Cambridge scientists have used human stem cells to create three-dimensional embryo-like structures that replicate certain aspects of very early human development—including the production ...

Stem cells are precursors of a variety of different cells: They can turn into anything from blood to bone to muscle. Human blood stem cells, known as hematopoietic stem cells, are the forerunners of ...

Long before human bone marrow takes over the task of producing blood, discrete waves of blood cell production occur in the developing embryo. Miriana Dardano, a postdoctoral researcher in Zweigerdt’s ...

Co-corresponding authors Jian Xu,PhD, (left) and Min Ni, PhD, (right) and co-first authors Junhua Lyu, PhD, (center left) and Yuannyu Zhang, PhD, (center right) identified and characterized a ...

Taken together, these advances suggest that part of age-related immune decline is driven by specific, potentially reversible ...

Blood cancers such as leukemia are caused by genetic changes in the blood-forming stem cells of the bone marrow. Scientists at the University Medical Center Mainz have now shown how chronic ...

Title21 Health Solutions, a portfolio company specialising in supporting life science regulatory needs, has joined the Blood ...

New research has revealed how a common inherited mutation in the DDX41 gene – one of the most common genetic risk factors for bone marrow cancers – can disrupt red blood cell development and activate ...
