Rather than triggering cell migration, CXCL12 triggers changes inside the erythroblast to prepare it to lose its nucleus. This includes cell reorganization, organizing its genetic material, and ...

Cancer specialists have long known that anemia, caused by a lack of healthy red blood cells, can arise when cancer metastasizes to the bone, but it’s been unclear why. A research team led by Princeton ...

Scientists have been working on the artificial production of blood for several decades. Now, researchers from the University of Konstanz and Queen Mary University of London have taken an important ...

A breakthrough in the understanding of how mammals create red blood cells could lead to opportunities for artificial blood to be created at scale for the first time. The study was led by Dr. Julia ...

In a significant leap toward artificial blood, scientists at the University of Konstanz and Queen Mary University of London have uncovered how a single molecule, chemokine CXCL12, triggers a crucial ...

A breakthrough in the understanding of how mammals create red blood cells by Dr Julia Gutjahr, who began her research into the mechanisms of blood production in the lab of Professor Antal Rot in the ...

The chemokine CXCL12 signals through its receptor CXCR4 to induce the migration of all leukocyte types and multiple other cell types. Here, we report that CXCR4 is expressed in mouse erythroblasts, ...
