The 34 pages that link to Bone marrow, each with the reason it gives.

• Immune systemRelated: It generates blood-cell precursors and is where B cells mature.

• NeutrophilRelated: It supplies circulating neutrophils and stores mature cells for rapid release.

• BoneRelated: Marrow occupies internal spaces that bone tissue encloses.

• Aplastic anemiaBroader topic: Aplastic anemia arises when this blood-forming tissue becomes markedly hypocellular.

• ErythropoietinRelated: Erythropoietin acts primarily on red-cell precursors in this tissue.

• BloodCompared with: It produces blood cells but is a tissue, not a circulating fluid.

• Hematopoietic stem cellRelated: Its microenvironment is the principal adult home of these stem cells.

• Bone marrow biopsyNarrower topic: The biopsy samples this tissue to examine its cells and internal organization.

• LeukemiaRelated: Leukemic cells often accumulate in marrow and interfere with normal blood production.

• Multiple myelomaNarrower topic: Myeloma develops in marrow and can suppress normal blood-cell formation.

• ErythropoiesisNarrower topic: Adult erythropoiesis normally takes place in marrow niches that support developing cells.

• ImmunodeficiencyRelated: Disorders of blood-cell production can reduce multiple immune-cell populations at once.

• SpleenCompared with: Bone marrow makes most blood cells, whereas the adult spleen mainly filters blood and mounts immune responses.

• ThymusCompared with: Bone marrow generates T-cell precursors, while the thymus is where they mature.

• Acute lymphoblastic leukemiaBroader topic: Leukemic lymphoblasts accumulate there and suppress normal blood-cell production.

• ReticulocyteRelated: Reticulocytes form there before entering the circulation.

• Megaloblastic anemiaNarrower topic: The disorder’s defining abnormally large precursors develop in this tissue.

• OsteologyRelated: Its presence and distribution connect bone structure with blood formation and energy storage.

• Acute radiation syndromeRelated: Radiation-sensitive marrow stem cells explain falling blood counts and infection risk.

• Avascular necrosisBroader topic: Marrow injury and loss of its small vessels can accompany bone infarction.

• Bearded vultureRelated: Marrow supplies much of the energy obtained from the bones it eats.

• HematologyRelated: It is a central blood-forming organ and a frequent site of diagnostic sampling.

• Human cannibalismRelated: Long-bone breakage can reveal efforts to extract marrow for food.

• Human skeletonBroader topic: Marrow gives the skeleton a blood-forming and energy-storage role beyond support.

• Blood cellRelated: In adults, it is the principal site where new blood cells are made.

• Lymphoid tissueRelated: Bone marrow supplies immune cells and serves as a primary lymphoid site.

• Skeleton (anatomy)Broader topic: Marrow makes some bones sites of blood-cell production.

• X-linked agammaglobulinemiaRelated: B-cell maturation stalls there, while other major blood-cell lineages are generally preserved.

• Bone (anatomy)Broader topic: Marrow occupies internal spaces within many bones.

• EmperipolesisNarrower topic: Many documented examples involve blood cells interacting within bone marrow.

• Erythroid cellsRelated: Most erythroid maturation occurs in marrow before reticulocytes enter blood.

• Hemic and Immune SystemsBroader topic: It continually supplies the blood with immune cells and other blood cells.

• Hemic and Lymphatic DiseasesRelated: It is a primary site of blood formation and a target of many marrow diseases.

• QulastaRelated: Pegfilgrastim stimulates neutrophil production in this tissue.
