Novel microenvironment-targeted therapy for bone marrow recovery after injury

A healthy bone marrow (BM) produces nearly all types of cells in our blood. Many blood disorders occur when hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) in the BM malfunction. Treatment with radiation or chemotherapy for many blood disorders and cancers can, as a side effect, deplete not only

Young blood stem cells rejuvenate aging immune systems in old mice

By freezing your own healthy blood stem cells in your 20s, thawing them and undergoing a stem cell transplant in your 40s or 50s, it might be possible to rejuvenate your blood-forming and immune systems. Science fiction? At least it works when old mice receive healthy blood stem

Heat waves and pollution raise heart risks, doctors warn

When temperatures climb, the cardiovascular system works harder to keep the body cool by redirecting blood flow from the core to the surface of the skin to allow for evaporation. High temperatures can cause blood to coagulate and thicken, making the process even harder on the hea
