Magnesium and vitamin B12 are vital nutrients for supporting energy. Here's what to know about when and why one may be more beneficial than the other.

The first comprehensive map of the dramatic changes that take place in the blood system over the course of the human lifetime could have implications for the treatment of acute myeloid leukemia and ...

Stem cell transplantation could be a rapid and effective way to restore hemoglobin production in individuals with the blood ...

Your blood cells work tirelessly to keep you alive, carrying oxygen throughout your body and fighting off infections. But hidden in your daily meals are foods that can silently compromise these vital ...

Researchers have developed a method to confidently produce blood cell precursors from stem cells in mice, by activating a set of seven key genes in the laboratory. The team takes a step forward ...

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. Understanding the ...

If CXCR4 is removed from the cells, red blood cell development stops at subsequent stages, and bone marrow production drops severely. That loss helps to confirm just how important the CXCL12-CXCR4 ...

When people donate blood, stem cells in the bone marrow make new blood cells to replace what was lost. This stress can drive the selection of certain clones—groups of blood cells with a slightly ...

Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. CXCL12 may help scientists mass-produce artificial red blood cells by triggering key steps in their development. (CREDIT: ...

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 ...
