摘要
Recent studies have uncovered that the calvarial bone marrow (BM), located within the skull, functions as a specialized hematopoietic niche distinct from BM in long bones. This compartment supports a unique repertoire of immune cells, particularly neutrophils, and plays a critical role in neuroimmune surveillance through direct anatomical channels that connect the calvarial BM to the dura mater. These bone marrow-dura mater (BM-DM) channels not only enable immune cell trafficking but may also mediate cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) flow, facilitating bidirectional communication between the central nervous system (CNS) and bone marrow. The vascular and stromal architecture of calvarial BM is notably different, featuring expanded trabecular bone, distinct endothelial subtypes, and perivascular niches that promote hematopoietic stem cell maintenance. Remarkably, the calvarial BM demonstrates resilience to aging-associated hallmarks seen in long bones, such as vascular rarefaction, adipocyte accumulation, and inflammatory signaling. Instead, it continues to expand and maintain vascular and immune integrity well into advanced age, supporting healthy hematopoiesis. This compartment also responds uniquely to physiological and pathological stressors, including pregnancy, stroke, and leukemia, with distinct vascular remodeling and immune cell output compared to femoral BM. The structural and functional heterogeneity of calvarial BM suggests that bone marrow specialization is tightly linked to anatomical location and local physiological demands. These findings underscore the importance of considering site-specific bone marrow microenvironments in both health and disease. Understanding calvarial BM dynamics could open new avenues for modulating neuroimmune interactions and developing targeted therapies for CNS-related pathologies.
