Lymphoid and myeloid differentiation of fetal liver CD34+lineage- cells in human thymic organ culture
In this article, we report that the human fetal thymus contains CD34bright cells (< 0.01% of total thymocytes) with a phenotype that resembles that of multipotent hematopoietic progenitors in the fetal bone marrow. CD34bright thymocytes were CD33-/dull and were negative for CD38, CD2, and CD5 as well as for the lineage markers CD3, CD4, and CD8 (T cells), CD19 and CD20 (B cells), CD56 (NK cells...
متن کاملBile acid synthesis during development. Mitochondrial 12 alpha-hydroxylation in human fetal liver.
Hydroxylation of 5 beta-[7 beta-3H]cholestane-3 alpha, 7 alpha-diol was studied in mitochondrial preparations from human fetal livers. The livers were obtained at legal abortions between weeks 14 and 24. In addition to hydroxylation in the 26-position, 5 beta-cholestane-3 alpha, 7 alpha-diol was hydroxylated in the 12 alpha-position. In one experiment, mitochondrial protein was solubilized and ...
متن کاملRetroviral transduction in fetal thymic organ culture.
T-cell development requires cytokines and intimate contact with stromal cells provided exclusively by the thymus. Consequently, an in vitro model of thymocyte differentiation, fetal thymic organ culture (FTOC), has been developed. FTOC recapitulates the normal development of T-cells derived from both mouse and human progenitor populations, providing a more rapid means to study T-cell developmen...
متن کاملRelationship between the newly identified bile acid binder and bile acid oxidoreductases in human liver.
Gel filtration fractions of human hepatic cytosol obtained from an autopsy liver were examined for elution of bile acid oxidoreductases. Several enzymes including 3 alpha-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (3 alpha-HSD), 3 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (3 beta-HSD), 3-ketosteroid reductase, and dihydrodiol dehydrogenase eluted mainly in the 30,000-40,000 Mr fractions known to contain the newly id...
متن کاملFarnesoid X receptor regulates bile acid-amino acid conjugation.
The farnesoid X receptor (FXR; NR1H4) regulates bile acid and lipid homeostasis by acting as an intracellular bile acid-sensing transcription factor. Several identified FXR target genes serve critical roles in the synthesis and transport of bile acids as well as in lipid metabolism. Here we used Affymetrix micro-array and Northern analysis to demonstrate that two enzymes involved in conjugation...
