Researchers link inflammation to illness in overweight people (USA Today)
Obesity scientists dig deep to find the connection between body fat, white blood cells and a cascade of diseases.
Breakthrough may lead to abundant adult stem cells for bone marrow transplants (Cornell News Service)
In a leap toward making stem cell therapy widely available, researchers at the Ansary Stem Cell Institute at Weill Cornell Medical College (WCMC) have discovered that endothelial cells, the most basic building blocks of the vascular system, produce growth factors that can grow copious amounts of adult stem cells and their progeny over the course of weeks.
Stem cells: home of HIV? (The Scientist)
New findings reveal one way the virus can evade treatment -- by hiding out in bone marrow cells, including possibly stem cells
Vitamin D helps immune system (Independent)
MEDICINE Vitamin D plays a key role in fighting infection by "priming" inert white blood cells known as T-cells into killer cells that seek and destroy unwelcome invaders, Danish scientists have found.

Breakthrough reveals blood vessel cells are key to growing unlimited amounts of adult stem cells (Science Daily)
In a leap toward making stem cell therapy widely available, researchers have discovered that endothelial cells, the most basic building blocks of the vascular system, produce growth factors that can grow copious amounts of adult stem cells and their progeny over the course of weeks. Until now, adult stem cell cultures would die within four or five days despite best efforts to grow them.
Blood Vessel Cells Promote Self-Renewal of Blood Stem Cells (Howard Hughes Medical Institute)
Howard Hughes Medical Institute (HHMI) scientists have discovered that endothelial cells, the building blocks of the vascular system, keep blood stem cells dividing healthily in a lab dish much longer and more effectively than previous methods of growing the cells.
