Abstract
The tissue microenvironment refers to a localised tissue area where a complex combination of cells, structural components, and signalling molecules work together to support specific biological activities. A prime example is the bone marrow microenvironment, particularly the hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) niche, which is of immense interest due to its critical role in supporting lifelong blood cell production and the growth of malignant cells. In this review, we summarise the current understanding of HSC niche biology, highlighting insights gained from advanced imaging and genomic techniques. We also discuss the potential of emerging technologies such as spatial multi-omics to unravel bone marrow architecture in unprecedented detail.
期刊介绍：
Seminars in Cell and Developmental Biology is a review journal dedicated to keeping scientists informed of developments in the field of molecular cell and developmental biology, on a topic by topic basis. Each issue is thematic in approach, devoted to an important topic of interest to cell and developmental biologists, focusing on the latest advances and their specific implications.
The aim of each issue is to provide a coordinated, readable, and lively review of a selected area, published rapidly to ensure currency.
