What do healthy bone marrow cells in children look like? For the first time, researchers have mapped this out. Scientists at the Princess Máxima Center examined nearly 91,000 individual bone marrow ...

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 ...

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 ...

A new study has shed light on a previously poorly understood aspect of breast cancer recurrence: how cancer cells survive in bone marrow despite targeted therapies. A study from researchers at the ...

Scientists discover how bones “listen” to exercise and activate cellular signals that strengthen bone structure.

Hidden within our bones, marrow sustains life by producing billions of blood cells daily, from oxygen-carrying red cells to immune-boosting white cells. This vital function is often disrupted in ...
