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 ...

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.

A single molecular switch is essential for blood stem cells to enter an activated, regenerative state in which they produce ...

Researchers at the Francis Crick Institute have identified genetic changes in blood stem cells from frequent blood donors that support the production of new, non-cancerous cells.

A mum whose friend's death from leukaemia prompted her to bank stem cells from her newborn's umbilical cord has described it ...

A new study shows that rolling up your sleeve to give blood might do more than just help others — it could also improve the ...

The four-month-old is now waiting one hundred days to find out if the transplant was a success.

Researchers have discovered genetic mutations in frequent blood donors that may promote the production of healthy cells ...

Scientists have made an important discovery about the relationship between hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) and immune response evasion. Their findings show how certain HSCs have regulatory functions ...

Scientists have found giving blood can help the body produce healthier cells and even reduce the risk of blood cancer ...
