Abstract

Megakaryocyte maturation is thought to occur as the cells migrate from a vessel-distant (endosteal) niche to the vessel within the bone. Here, the authors show that megakaryocytes represent largely sessile cells in close contact with the vasculature and homogeneously distributed in the bone marrow.
