A new Northwestern Medicine study has revealed how a common inherited mutation disrupts red blood cell development and sparks inflammation that can lead to leukemia, according to findings published in ...

The team observed the emergence of the three-dimensional embryo-like structures under a microscope in the lab. These started producing blood (seen here in red) after around two weeks of development - ...

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 ...

Building upon previous work, researchers at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai identified cells in the embryos of mice that are precursors to blood stem cells or hematopoietic stem/progenitor ...

A new study led by Stephen D. Nimer, M.D.,director of Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center, shows how a key molecule regulates the generation of new blood cells, a process called hematopoiesis that ...

In their quest for safe, mass-producible artificial blood, geneticists have long struggled. Our limited knowledge of genetic pathways that govern the development of blood has kept us from producing ...
