New research shows pollution particles can stick to red blood cells, traveling through the body—and masks may help stop them ...

Researchers have found the first direct evidence that tiny particles of air pollution stick to red blood cells, meaning they ...

In their quest for safe, mass-producible artificial blood, geneticists have long struggled. Our limited knowledge of genetic pathways that govern the development of blood has kept us from producing ...

Red blood cells carry oxygen from the lungs to every other organ, and blood-forming stem cells must make about 200 billion new red blood cells each day to keep the oxygen flowing. For many years, ...

The study suggests that bursting red blood cells, not blood clots, are the culprits. The microvasculature, the body’s network of tiny blood vessels, is critical for delivering oxygen and nutrients to ...

Red blood cells carry oxygen from the lungs to every other organ, and blood-forming stem cells must make about 200 billion ...

Researchers have found the first direct evidence that tiny particles of air pollution stick to our red blood cells, meaning they can travel freely around the body. These particles are produced by ...
