Raman microspectroscopy reveals unsaturation heterogeneity at the lipid droplet level and validates an in vitro model of bone marrow adipocyte subtypes

Olaia Maria Naveiras Torres-Quiroga, Charles Christopher Bataclan, Vasco Ledebur de Antas de Campos, Josefine Catharina Pedersen Tratwal, Daniel Naveed Tavakol

Bone marrow adipocytes (BMAds) constitute the most abundant stromal component of adult human bone marrow. Two subtypes of BMAds have been described, the more labile regulated adipocytes (rBMAds) and the more stable constitutive adipocytes (cBMAds), which d ...

Bone marrow adiposity and the hematopoietic niche: A historical perspective of reciprocity, heterogeneity, and lineage commitment

Olaia Maria Naveiras Torres-Quiroga, Charles Christopher Bataclan, Josefine Catharina Pedersen Tratwal, Shanti Rojas-Sutterlin

Purpose: Here we review the current knowledge on bone marrow adipocytes (BMAds) as active contributors to the regulation of the hematopoietic niche, and as potentially pivotal players in the progression of hematological malignancies. We highlight the hiera ...

Cryogel-based Injectable 3D Microcarrier Co-culture for Support of Hematopoietic Progenitor Niches

Olaia Maria Naveiras Torres-Quiroga, Thomas Michael Braschler, Josefine Catharina Pedersen Tratwal, Daniel Naveed Tavakol, Martina Genta

Although hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) transplantation can restore functional hematopoiesis upon immune or chemotherapy-induced bone marrow failure, complications often arise during recovery, leading to up to 25% transplant-related mortality in treated pat ...

Reporting Guidelines, Review of Methodological Standards, and Challenges Toward Harmonization in Bone Marrow Adiposity Research. Report of the Methodologies Working Group of the International Bone Marrow Adiposity Society

Olaia Maria Naveiras Torres-Quiroga, Josefine Catharina Pedersen Tratwal

The interest in bone marrow adiposity (BMA) has increased over the last decade due to its association with, and potential role, in a range of diseases (osteoporosis, diabetes, anorexia, cancer) as well as treatments (corticosteroid, radiation, chemotherapy ...

MarrowQuantAcross Aging and Aplasia: A Digital Pathology Workflow for Quantification of Bone Marrow Compartments in Histological Sections

Olaia Maria Naveiras Torres-Quiroga, Olivier Burri, Rita Sarkis, Nicolas Kunz, Vasco Ledebur de Antas de Campos, Josefine Catharina Pedersen Tratwal, Frédérica Schyrr, Chiheb Boussema, Shanti Rojas-Sutterlin, Daniel Naveed Tavakol

The bone marrow (BM) exists heterogeneously as hematopoietic/red or adipocytic/yellow marrow depending on skeletal location, age, and physiological condition. Mouse models and patients undergoing radio/chemotherapy or suffering acute BM failure endure rapi ...

Quantitative approaches to unravel bone marrow adipocyte site-specificity and its implication in hematopoiesis

Josefine Catharina Pedersen Tratwal

Over the last decade, bone marrow (BM) adipose tissue (BMAT) has emerged as a distinct adipose depot with unique metabolic properties and effects both in homeostasis and in the progression of disease. We provide a first comprehensive review of existing an ...
