Researchers from UC San Francisco have discovered blood stem cells in the lungs, disrupting a decades-old belief that new blood cells were only made in the bone marrow. Conventionally it was thought ...

Every second, an adult generates around five million new blood cells to replace aging or dying ones, making the blood system a highly regenerative organ. These new blood cells are formed in the bone ...

The team observed the emergence of the three-dimensional embryo-like structures under a microscope in the lab. These started producing blood (seen here in red) after around two weeks of development - ...
