Platelets are small types of blood cells that prevent excessive bleeding. It’s possible to develop low or high platelet counts related to a number of health conditions. Platelets are one of the ...

In general, CH mutations perturb blood-cell production, leading to an increase in number (expansion) of certain cell types. In some cases, cells undergo transformations that give rise to a blood ...

Scientists from The University of Manchester have changed our understanding of how cells in living organisms divide, which ...

If adults have nucleated red blood cells (NRBCs) in their blood, it’s usually a sign of a life threatening condition. The optimal NRBC count is 0. Even very low NRBC counts could cause a doctor ...

A groundbreaking new treatment has been found to kill off a deadly blood cancer while sparing healthy cells - offering fresh hope to thousands of patients. The new therapy targets acute myeloid ...

as giving blood may also enhance your ability to produce healthy blood cells, potentially reducing the risk of developing blood cancer. Hector Huerga Encabo at the Francis Crick Institute in ...

The team created stem cells from these white blood cells, and due to their pluripotency, the cells developed into cerebral organoids somewhat similar to developing human brains. “The central ...

These genes play roles in immunity and blood cell regulation. Overexpression of CSK and ULK3 in MCF-7 cells inhibited proliferation and migration, confirmed by in vitro tests. High ULK3 expression ...

Basophils are the rarest type of white blood cell (WBC). Sometimes called granulocytes, the cells hold tiny granules full of histamine. Basophils can also trigger your allergic reaction.
