Feb, 2026 Today is World Cancer Day 2026. At The International Bone Marrow Adiposity Society, we support basic and clinical research that unravels the role of bone marrow adipose tissue (BMAT) across a wide spectrum of cancers, from hematological malignancies to solid tumors. #BMAS #BMAsociety

FEB, 2026 Today is World Cancer Day 2026 - a global reminder of the urgency to prevent, detect, and treat cancer. Join us in promoting innovative science that strengthens prevention, improves early detection, and advances cancer treatment. #BMAS #BMAsociety #bonemarrowadipose #bonemarrowadiposity

Our January BMAS Paper of the Month shows- Proinflammatory and proangiogenic signaling, macrophage polarization, osteoclastogenesis, and BMAT expansion all converge to shape a complex, degradation-dependent marrow landscape. Previous Papers of the Month: bma-society.org/paper-of-the...

Our January BMAS Paper of the Month shows that immunomodulatory Mg screws promote osteogenesis at the interface and drive a previously unrecognized increase in peri-implant bone marrow adiposity, especially with high-purity Mg and its faster degradation. 🔗 BMAS: bma-society.org/paper-of-the...

📣 Save the date! The 9th International Meeting on Bone Marrow Adiposity will take place 10–11 Sept 2026 in Edinburgh, Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 Two days of science, discussion, and exchange. More details coming soon. #BoneMarrowAdiposity #MedicalResearch #TranslationalResearch #BoneHealth #Edinburgh

New BMAS Paper of the Month (Dec 2025) 🦴 from @lingqin6.bsky.social A must-read for bone researchers! 🔗 BMAS feature + article link: bma-society.org/paper-of-the... 📚 PoTM archive: bma-society.org/paper-of-the...

Bone marrow adipogenic lineage key for Bone Resorption from @lingqin6.bsky.social ✔️ MALPs, not osteocytes, are the dominant RANKL source in adult marrow ✔️ RANKL deletion in MALPs suppresses osteoclasts ✔️ MALP-derived RANKL drives OVX-induced bone loss yet is dispensable for OVX marrow adiposity

New BMAS Paper of the Month (Dec 2025) 🦴 from @lingqin6.bsky.social Lu et al., Bone marrow adipogenic lineage precursors are the major regulator of bone resorption in adult mice (Bone Research,2025) A must-read for bone researchers! 🔗 BMAS feature + article link: bma-society.org/paper-of-the...

Sub-post 2: 🩺 CLINICAL GAME-CHANGER: This positions BMAT as: Biomarker for disease risk assessment Potential therapeutic target Tool for precision medicine The message is clear: analyze BMAT at MULTIPLE sites or miss critical pathophysiology! bma-society.org/paper-of-the... #BMAT

FINDINGS: BMAT linked to osteoporosis, fractures, T2D, CVD, cancers PLOT TWIST: Type 2 diabetes correlates: ✅ Positive with spinal BMAT ❌ Negative with femoral BMAT Mendelian randomization confirms CAUSAL link to osteoporosis Site-specific biology = site-specific disease!

🚨 November #PaperOfTheMonth is MASSIVE! 🚨 Xu et al. analyzed 48,000+ UK Biobank participants with MRI to reveal bone marrow adiposity's links to 47 DISEASES across 12 categories The twist? Location matters MORE than we thought 🦴 This changes EVERYTHING about BMAT biology

🎙️ Happening TODAY! Join us for the 9th Webinar featuring Dr. William Cawthorn. He’ll present “Insights from recent large-scale analyses of bone marrow adiposity in the UK Biobank” uncovering how #BMAT is emerging as a clinically relevant and genetically tractable target for future research.

Today is the #WorldOsteoporosisDay 🦴 Raise awareness about osteoporosis and bone health 🗣️🌏. The BMAS is dedicated to advancing both basic and clinical research to better understand osteoporosis and improve patient outcomes. Join us in supporting innovative science! #BoneHealth #Osteoporosis #Life

Sub-post 2 🩺 CLINICAL IMPACT: This could revolutionize how we approach: Hip replacement outcomes Bone healing strategies Hematopoietic recovery post-surgery Personalized orthopedic medicine Props to @drenka-trivanovic-8ab21435 & team! 👏 📖 Read the full study at bma-society.org/paper-of-the...

Sub-post 1 Femoral BMAT: Higher saturated fats, MORE hematopoietic stem cells Acetabular BMAT: Different lipid profile, FEWER blood-forming cells Same patient, different skeleton location = different biology This work sheds new light on BMAT physiology! www.mdpi.com/2218-1989/15...

#PaperOfTheMonth reveals that location matters MORE than we thought! New research by @drenka.bsky.social et al. shows bone marrow adipose tissue (BMAT) has completely different "personalities" depending on where it sits in your skeleton 🦴 Femoral BMAT ≠ Acetabular BMAT in #osteoarthritis patients.
