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 - ...

Each blood stem cell accumulates unique DNA mutations throughout life, allowing us to use the mutations as natural 'barcodes' to trace the stem cell contribution to different blood cell types in ...

University of Cambridge scientists have used human stem cells to create three-dimensional embryo-like structures that replicate certain aspects of very early human development - including the ...

A study published in the journal Human Molecular Genetics by a research team from Université Laval and Héma-Québec suggests it may be possible to produce in vitro red blood cells compatible with all ...

In recent years, there has been a growing trend of an aging patient population and an increasing prevalence of age-associated diseases, underscoring the need for advancing research into the biological ...

Researchers have recreated a miniature human bone marrow system that mirrors the real structure found inside our bones. The model includes the full mix of cells and signals needed for blood production ...

What Is an MCHC Blood Test? A mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration (MCHC) blood test measures the amount of a protein called hemoglobin in your red blood cells. It’s one of many measurements ...
