Functionally Distinct Subpopulations of CpG-Activated Memory B Cells
During the human B cell (Bc) recall response, rapid cell division results in multiple Bc subpopulations. The TLR-9 agonist CpG oligodeoxynucleotide, combined with cytokines, causes Bc activation and division in vitro and increased CD27 surface expression in a sub-population of Bc. We hypothesized that the proliferating CD27(lo) subpopulation, which has a lower frequency of antibody-secreting ce...
متن کاملMorphologically and Functionally Distinct Lipid Droplet Subpopulations
Lipid droplet (LD), a multi-functional organelle, is often found to associate with other cellular membranous structures and vary in size in a given cell, which may be related to their functional diversity. Here we established a method to separate LD subpopulations from isolated CHO K2 LDs into three different size categories. The subpopulation with smallest LDs was nearly free of ER and other m...
متن کاملDistinct response of human B cell subpopulations in recognition of an innate immune signal, CpG DNA.
Innate immunity has recently gained renewed interest in its ability to regulate adaptive immunity. Among the innate immune signals, CpG DNA has revealed its potential as a vaccine adjuvant. However, the cellular mechanism for the effect of CpG DNA on the humoral immune response is not well understood. Here, we investigated the effects of CpG DNA on human B cell differentiation using highly puri...
متن کاملLNGFR+THY-1+VCAM-1hi+ Cells Reveal Functionally Distinct Subpopulations in Mesenchymal Stem Cells
Human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs), which conventionally are isolated based on their adherence to plastic, are heterogeneous and have poor growth and differentiation, limiting our ability to investigate their intrinsic characteristics. We report an improved prospective clonal isolation technique and reveal that the combination of three cell-surface markers (LNGFR, THY-1, and VCAM-1) allows fo...
متن کاملSLAM family markers resolve functionally distinct subpopulations of hematopoietic stem cells and multipotent progenitors.
Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) and multipotent hematopoietic progenitors (MPPs) are routinely isolated using various markers but remain heterogeneous. Here we show that four SLAM family markers, CD150, CD48, CD229, and CD244, can distinguish HSCs and MPPs from restricted progenitors and subdivide them into a hierarchy of functionally distinct subpopulations with stepwise changes in cell-cycle ...
