Stem cells in the bone marrow express different molecular markers depending on whether they form bone or other tissue types. Stem cells found in the bone marrow are not all the same. These cells ...

11, 2024 — Scientists have identified a protein that blocks the activity of bone-forming cells (osteoblasts) by stopping them from maturing during the journey to sites of bone formation ...

For example bone marrow stem cells only form different types of blood cells. Plants have stem cells too. They're found at the meristems, the growing tips of the roots and the shoots. The big ...

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 ...

Hidden within our bones, marrow sustains life by producing billions of blood cells daily, from oxygen-carrying red cells to ...

These cytokines were loaded into this patch of matrix 2 to 5 years earlier by another class of cells of a previous BMU whose task is to form new bone, osteoblasts (Figure 1). It has been generally ...

Bone does not just grow in any which way—rather, the bone cells respond to external forces. If bones are subjected to ...

A recent study has uncovered the molecular mechanisms behind osteocyte death in melanoma bone metastasis, revealing that ferroptosis—an iron-dependent form of cell death—plays a central role in the ...
