Hypothetical structure of bone marrow in femurs

This figure is based on the gross structure of bone marrow described in Nilsson et al. (67) and experimental results shown in Lai et al. (31). PTX-sensitive GPCR-dependent movement of MPPs from the outer to inner region is necessary for proper lymphocyte development.
