Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Along with a strong impact on skeletal integrity, bone marrow adipose tissue (BMAT) is an important modulator of the adult hematopoietic system. This review will summarize the current knowledge on the causal relationship between bone marrow (BM) adipogenesis and the development and progression of hematologic malignancies. RECENT FINDINGS BM adipocytes (BMAds) support a number of processes promoting oncogenesis, including the evolution of clonal hematopoiesis, malignant cell survival, proliferation, angiogenesis, and chemoresistance. In addition, leukemic cells manipulate surrounding BMAds by promoting lipolysis and release of free fatty acids, which are then utilized by leukemic cells via β-oxidation. Therefore, limiting BM adipogenesis, blocking BMAd-derived adipokines, or lipid metabolism obstruction have been considered as potential treatment options for hematological malignancies. Leukemic stem cells rely heavily on BMAds within the structural BM microenvironment for necessary signals which foster disease progression. Further development of 3D constructs resembling BMAT at different skeletal regions are critical to better understand these relationships in geometric space and may provide essential insight into the development of hematologic malignancies within the BM niche. In turn, these mechanisms provide promising potential as novel approaches to targeting the microenvironment with new therapeutic strategies.

Abstract
Bone marrow metastasis (BMM) of solid tumors refers to a group of diseases that originate from non-hematopoietic malignant tumor cells invading the bone marrow (BM) through complex metastatic patterns. If BMM identification is delayed, the disease will rapidly develop into disseminated carcinogenesis of the BM, which manifests as a series of hematological disorders and microangiopathic hemolytic anemia, leading to serious life-threatening conditions. Although the study of solid tumor BMM is receiving increasing attention, study remains limited, and most descriptions are derived from case reports. Currently, clinicians have insufficient understanding of BMM, and BMM occurrence is often not recognized early or treated effectively, resulting in high mortality rates. In this article, we review the epidemiology, molecular mechanisms, clinical diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis of solid tumor BMM.

Abstract
Bone marrow metastasis (BMM) refers to the metastasis of malignant tumours originating from nonhematopoietic tissues to the bone marrow. The nonhematopoietic malignant tumour cells metastasize to the bone marrow via heterogeneous dissemination or direct invasion to form metastases and the bone marrow is infiltrated by tumour cells, resulting in the destruction of its structure and the development of haematopoietic disorders. In the present study, the clinical characteristics, prognosis and treatment of BMMs were investigated. The main clinical manifestations were moderate anaemia and thrombocytopenia. Out of 52 cases, a total of 18 patients were not treated and the remaining patients underwent chemotherapy, radiotherapy, surgery or autologous stem cell transplantation in the Affiliated Tumour Hospital of Tianjin Medical University from September 2010 to October 2021. The primary tumours of bone marrow metastatic cancer were usually neuroblastoma and tumours originating from the breast and stomach. When bone metastases occur, patients are not necessarily accompanied by BMMs. In the present study, bone metastases occurred mainly in patients with breast and prostate cancers. The median overall survival of patients treated with antitumor therapy was significantly higher than that of untreated patients (11.5 vs. 3.3 months P<0.01). For patients with BMM, it is of great importance to actively evaluate the patient's condition and select the appropriate treatment plan for improving their prognosis.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW This review focuses on the recent findings regarding bone marrow adipose tissue (BMAT) concerning bone health. We summarize the variations in BMAT in relation to age, sex, and skeletal sites, and provide an update on noninvasive imaging techniques to quantify human BMAT. Next, we discuss the role of BMAT in patients with osteoporosis and interventions that affect BMAT. RECENT FINDINGS There are wide individual variations with region-specific fluctuation and age- and gender-specific differences in BMAT content and composition. The Bone Marrow Adiposity Society (BMAS) recommendations aim to standardize imaging protocols to increase comparability across studies and sites. Water-fat imaging (WFI) seems an accurate and efficient alternative for spectroscopy (1H-MRS). Most studies indicate that greater BMAT is associated with lower bone mineral density (BMD) and a higher prevalence of vertebral fractures. The proton density fat fraction (PDFF) and changes in lipid composition have been associated with an increased risk of fractures independently of BMD. Therefore, PDFF and lipid composition could potentially be future imaging biomarkers for assessing fracture risk. Evidence of the inhibitory effect of osteoporosis treatments on BMAT is still limited to a few randomized controlled trials. Moreover, results from the FRAME biopsy sub-study highlight contradictory findings on the effect of the sclerostin antibody romosozumab on BMAT. Further understanding of the role(s) of BMAT will provide insight into the pathogenesis of osteoporosis and may lead to targeted preventive and therapeutic strategies.
