Hematology, also spelled haematology, is the branch of biology (physiology), pathology, clinical laboratory, internal medicine, and pediatrics that is concerned with the study of blood, the blood-forming organs, and blood diseases. Hematology includes the study of etiology, diagnosis, treatment, prognosis, and prevention of blood diseases.
Researchers from Spain conducted a study on sink drains across various wards in a contemporary university hospital that follows advanced cleaning protocols.
Today, OGT announces the North American launch of its new next-generation sequencing (NGS) SureSeq™ Myeloid MRD Panel, which provides a flexible NGS workflow for the detection of ultra-low frequency measurable residual disease (MRD)-associated biomarkers in acute myeloid leukemia (AML).
A group of immune proteins called the inflammasome can help prevent blood stem cells from becoming malignant by removing certain receptors from their surfaces and blocking cancer gene activity, according to a preclinical study by Weill Cornell Medicine investigators.
In everyday life, when things turn out the opposite of what you expect, it's usually cause for frustration. In science, it's often the starting point for discovery.
The abstracts highlight the potential to improve SCD treatment using aRBCX. The first poster presents data from U.S. insurance claims, examined in a study performed with researchers at University of Pittsburgh.
Envision being a single cartwheel away from altering looks. The brown locks will turn platinum blond with just one flip. That is similar to what occurs in certain prokaryotes, or single-celled creatures like bacteria when they go through a process known as inversions.
Mayo Clinic researchers mined the molecular foundations of cancer and uncovered a new reason chimeric antigen receptor (CAR-T cell therapy) fails in some patients.
There are approximately 100 trillion microbes in the human gut on average, and many of them are always vying for scarce resources.
Researchers at the Josep Carreras Leukaemia Research Institute have identified the genetic foundation for newborn B-cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukaemia (B-ALL) glucocorticoid resistance through MLL gene rearrangements.
CARISMa scientists at Goethe University Frankfurt introduced innovative CAR therapy that recognizes and specifically kills tumor cells. This cancer therapy is the focus of new federally funded LOEWE research.
The most recent results from a clinical trial were given by researchers in an effort to find a cure for sickle cell disease, a painful genetic blood illness that has few available treatments.
Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs), widely employed anticancer agents, have been found to impact bone turnover, potentially conferring a protective effect on bone through the promotion of osteogenesis.
Through years of engineering gene-editing systems, researchers have developed a suite of tools that enable the modification of genomes in living cells, akin to 'genome surgery'.
Imagine being able to count the different types of blood cells being formed inside the tiny bones of a mouse and pinpointing the strings and clusters of cells within the bone marrow that are responsible for producing specific types of blood cells.
Targeting two brain tumor-associated proteins-;rather than one-;with CAR T cell therapy shows promise as a strategy for reducing solid tumor growth in patients with recurrent glioblastoma (GBM), an aggressive form of brain cancer, according to early results from the first six patients treated in an ongoing Phase I clinical trial led by researchers from the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania and Penn Medicine's Abramson Cancer Center.
The International Society for Advancement of Cytometry (ISAC) is pleased to announce the appointment of Dr. Bartek Rajwa as the new Editor-in-Chief of “Cytometry Part A – the Journal of Quantitative Cell Science.”
After stem cell transplantation, the donated immune cells sometimes attack the patients' bodies. This is known as graft versus host disease or GvHD.
Scientists from Necker-Enfants Malades Hospital (AP-HP), the Institut Pasteur, Université Paris Cité, Inserm, Université Paris-Est Créteil and the Alfort National Veterinary School, coordinated by Professor Marc Eloit and Dr. Anne Jamet in collaboration with Dr. Jacques Fourgeaud and Beatrice Regnault, studied the role of global genetic characterization of samples (or non-targeted metagenomics) using next-generation sequencing (mNGS) in diagnosing infections.
A novel technique to test platelet function within a person's blood sample is faster, easier and more precise than methods currently in use, an experimental study shows.
Platelets, or thrombocytes, are specialized cellular fragments that form blood clots when we get scrapes and traumatic injuries. Viral infections, autoimmune disease, and other conditions can cause platelet levels to drop throughout the body, termed thrombocytopenia.
