The map was developed by using single-cell RNA sequencing to analyze 1.4 million plasma and immune cells in bone marrow from over 300 patients.

"By perfecting stem cell methods that mimic the development of the normal blood stem cells found in our bodies we can understand and develop personalized treatments for a range of blood diseases, ...

Tiny plastic particles, from the micro- to nanoscale, have been routinely detected in water, soil, air, aquatic species, and humans in recent years. As concerns grow over their potential impact on the ...

The amino acid glutamine plays an unexpected role in erythropoiesis, the differentiation of erythroid progenitor cells into mature red blood cells. Ordinarily, glutamine is broken down by stem cells ...

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 ...

A new study maps the immune cell landscape of bone marrow in patients with multiple myeloma, a rare cancer that develops in ...

The production of red blood cells from stem cells has emerged as a transformative approach to address chronic blood shortages and meet the increasing demand for transfusion therapies. By harnessing ...
