Bone Marrow Avatars: Mimicking Hematopoiesis in a Dish

Cancer Discov. 2023 Feb 6;13(2):263-265. doi: 10.1158/2159-8290.CD-22-1303.

Abstract

Faithful recapitulation of human bone marrow complexity has been a major challenge for the sci-entific community for many years. In this issue of Cancer Discovery, Khan and colleagues present an improved induced pluripotent stem cell differentiation protocol that generates bone marrow organoids re-creating key characteristics of human marrow. See related article by Khan et al., p. 364 (8).
