Bone is a common site for metastasis of solid cancers, but histological and molecular features of bone metastases are not well understood. In a new study published in Cell Genomics, researchers at ...

Bone health relies on a balance between osteoblasts (builders) and osteoclasts (recyclers). Peak bone mass occurs in early adulthood; deficiencies during this window amplify fracture risks later in ...

Typically, bone marrow research relies heavily on animal models and oversimplified cell cultures in the laboratory. Now, researchers from the Department of Biomedicine at the University of Basel and ...

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 ...

In leukemia's most aggressive forms, the blood cell factories in our bone marrow falter. Instead of dividing and multiplying ...

Experiments conducted in Brazil using laboratory rats have shown that graphene-based structures can act as a powerful ally in bone regeneration. These structures are made of sheets of the chemical ...

Cancer specialists have long known that anemia, caused by a lack of healthy red blood cells, can arise when cancer metastasizes to the bone, but it’s been unclear why. A research team led by Princeton ...
