Ex vivo expansion of human Tregs specific for alloantigens presented directly or indirectly.
Adoptive transfer of regulatory T cells (Tregs) prevents GVHD in experimental animals. Because antigen activation drives Treg function, we measured the frequency, growth requirements, and function of alloantigen-specific (allospecific) Tregs from human blood. When alloantigen was presented directly, the precursor frequency of allo-specific Tregs in normal individuals was 1.02% (95% confidence i...

However, egl-30 G q ␣ probably has additional ef-(or Indirectly) to Gq fectors, since a presumptive loss-of-function allele of egl-8 PLC causes less severe phenotypes than strong reduction-of-function alleles of egl-30 G q ␣ (Miller et al., 1999).

متن کاملEx vivo expansion of human hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells.
Despite progress in our understanding of the growth factors that support the progressive maturation of the various cell lineages of the hematopoietic system, less is known about factors that govern the self-renewal of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs), and our ability to expand human HSPC numbers ex vivo remains limited. Interest in stem cell expansion has been heightened by the i...
متن کاملEx vivo expansion of human hematopoietic stem cells.
There has been great interest in the ex vivo expansion of human long-term repopulating hematopoietic stem cells (LTR-HSCs) for a variety of clinical applications such as umbilical cord blood transplantation. The glucoprotein130 signal, activated by a complex of interleukin 6 (IL-6) and soluble IL-6 receptor (IL-6/sIL-6R), acts dramatically in synergy with the c-Kit or Flk2/Flt3 signal to expand...
متن کاملEx vivo expanded human CD4+ regulatory NKT cells suppress expansion of tumor antigen-specific CTLs.
NKT cells can produce large amounts of both Th1- and Th2-type cytokines and are an important regulatory cell type. To elucidate their role in acquired immunity, we examined the effect of human Valpha24+Vbeta11+ NKT cells or CD1d-specific ligand alpha-galactosylceramide (alphaGalCer) on the in vitro generation of antigen-specific CTLs from PBMCs using autologous MART-1(26-35) peptide-pulsed dend...
