Every second, an adult generates around five million new blood cells to replace aging or dying ones, making the blood system a highly regenerative organ.

Our blood consists of many cell types that develop through different stages from a precursor type—the blood stem cell. An ...

The researchers observed a stark contrast to patterns of human aging in blood. Mice maintain diverse blood stem cells throughout their lives, without the same collapse into a few dominant clones ...

Men who had given blood more than 100 times in their life were more likely to have blood cells carrying certain beneficial mutations, suggesting that donating blood promotes the growth of these cells ...

In both conditions, the cells exhibited similar proliferation, cytokine production, and metabolic patterns, suggesting that IL-3 does not directly influence CTLs. Instead, the cytokine may act through ...

Women with blood pressure levels in a range considered clinically normal during pregnancy but no mid-pregnancy drop in blood pressure face an increased risk of developing hypertension in the five ...

Certain subsets of immune NK cells were altered in the blood of people with ALS, and could serve as therapeutic targets, a ...

Our blood consists of many cell types that develop through different stages from a precursor type -- the blood stem cell. An international research team has now investigated the developmental pathways ...
