Stem cells in the bone marrow express different molecular markers depending on whether they form bone or other tissue types. Stem cells found in the bone marrow are not all the same. These cells ...

But the adult stem cells are more limited in the types of cell they can make. For example bone marrow stem cells only form different types of blood cells. Plants have stem cells too. They're found ...

Adult stem cells will differentiate into a narrower range of cell types. Bone marrow transplants are an example of adult stem cell transplant. Bone marrow cells will differentiate into different ...

Bone cancer is characterized by uncontrolled growth of cells of the bone. Primary bone cancer (that arises directly in the bone), is relatively rare. Different types of bone tissue give rise to ...

A bone sarcoma is a kind of tumor—a growth of abnormal cells in the bones. When the tumor grows out of control and destroys nearby tissue or spreads to other parts of the body, it's called malignant.

It replaces the bone marrow harmed by myeloma cells. Hematopoietic (hee-MA-toh-poy-EH-tik) stem cells (usually just called stem cells) grow into all types of blood cells. The white blood cells fight ...

When blood cancer cells break through the bone and multiply, tumor cells become dangerously diverse and the immune response ...

This is called mixed chimerism. Eventually, all your blood and bone marrow should ideally be from your donor. This is called full chimerism. You have tests to check for chimerism every few months for ...

Most people live with CLL much longer than with other cancers or other types of leukemia. CLL and ALL begin in the bone marrow, where blood cells are usually made. Specifically, it starts in a ...
