- Abstract
- The tissue microenvironment refers to a localised tissue area where a complex combination of cells, structural components, and signalling molecules work together to support specific biological activities. A prime example is the bone marrow microenvironment, particularly the hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) niche, which is of immense interest due to its critical role in supporting lifelong blood cell production and the growth of malignant cells. In this review, we summarise the current understanding of HSC niche biology, highlighting insights gained from advanced imaging and genomic techniques. We also discuss the potential of emerging technologies such as spatial multi-omics to unravel bone marrow architecture in unprecedented detail.
