  2. Mucoid plaque - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mucoid_plaque

    Practicing physicians have dismissed the concept of mucoid plaque as a hoax and a "non-credible concept". [4] A pathologist at the University of Texas School of Medicine addressed Anderson's claims directly, saying that he has "seen several thousand intestinal biopsies and have never seen any 'mucoid plaque.' This is a complete fabrication with ...

  3. Bone marrow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bone_marrow

    Bone marrow is a semi-solid tissue found within the spongy (also known as cancellous) portions of bones. [2] In birds and mammals, bone marrow is the primary site of new blood cell production (or haematopoiesis). [3] It is composed of hematopoietic cells, marrow adipose tissue, and supportive stromal cells.

  4. Macrophage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Macrophage

    IL-3 and GM-CSF released by T H 1 cells stimulate more monocyte production in the bone marrow. [ 34 ] When intracellular pathogens cannot be eliminated, such as in the case of Mycobacterium tuberculosis , the pathogen is contained through the formation of granuloma , an aggregation of infected macrophages surrounded by activated T cells. [ 47 ]

  5. Stromal cell - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stromal_cell

    It is well known that stromal cells arise and are stored in the bone marrow until maturation and differentiation. They are located in the stroma and aid hematopoietic cells in forming the elements of the blood. [8] While a majority is found in the bone marrow scientists now know that stromal cells can be found in a variety of different tissues ...

  6. Histiocyte - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Histiocyte

    Histiocytes are derived from the bone marrow by multiplication from a stem cell.The derived cells migrate from the bone marrow to the blood as monocytes.They circulate through the body and enter various organs, where they undergo differentiation into histiocytes, which are part of the mononuclear phagocytic system (MPS).

  7. Monoblast - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monoblast

    Monoblasts are normally found in bone marrow and do not appear in the normal peripheral blood. [3] They mature into monocytes which, in turn, develop into macrophages . [ 4 ] They then are seen as macrophages in the normal peripheral blood and many different tissues of the body.

    The immune system appears to play an important role in clearing the plaques in the brain which are hallmarks of Alzheimer’s disease, and this study suggests that a bone marrow transplant might ...

  9. Hematopoietic stem cell - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hematopoietic_stem_cell

    Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) are the stem cells [1] that give rise to other blood cells.This process is called haematopoiesis. [2] In vertebrates, the first definitive HSCs arise from the ventral endothelial wall of the embryonic aorta within the (midgestational) aorta-gonad-mesonephros region, through a process known as endothelial-to-hematopoietic transition.
