In vitro transdifferentiation of human peripheral blood mononuclear cells to photoreceptor-like cells
Direct reprogramming is a promising, simple and low-cost approach to generate target cells from somatic cells without using induced pluripotent stem cells. Recently, peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) have attracted considerable attention as a somatic cell source for reprogramming. As a cell source, PBMCs have an advantage over dermal fibroblasts with respect to the ease of collecting t...
متن کاملOptimization of human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) cryopreservation
Cryopreservation is the method of choice for long term storage of human PBMCs. This study was designed to compare the different combinations of variables affecting the cryopreservation of PBMCs samples. The viability of PBMCs separated from 2×5 ml peripheral blood samples obtained from 16 healthy adult volunteers, were measured using trypan blue dye exclusion method just before freezing with ...
متن کاملConditioned Medium from Cultured Colorectal Cancer Cells Affects Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells Inflammatory Phenotype in Vitro
Background: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most common cancer worldwide. Studies have indicated that immune cells and soluble factors play a key role in maintaining the balance between tumor-promoting inflammation and anti-tumor immunity. It has been shown that secreted cytokines from CRC cell lines could affect peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs), monocytes, and macrophages phenot...
متن کاملToll Like Receptor 2 and 4 Expression in Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells of Multiple Sclerosis Patients
Background: Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a T cell mediated autoimmune disease with unknown etiology. Appropriate MS therapeutic strategies need thorough understanding of both disease etiology and pathogenesis mechanisms. Ligation of TLR-2 and TLR-4 stimulates the production of several cytokines leading to CNS autoimmunity and neurodegenerative diseases. Objective: To find a relationship between M...
متن کاملToxic Effect of Verapamil on Human Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells and BALB/c Peritoneal Macrophages, in vitro
Background & Aims: Verapamil as a calcium channel blocker has been broadly used in the treatment of many cardiovascular diseases such as hypertension and arrhythmia. Furthermore, the anti-tumor/ antiinflammatory effects of verapamil have been shown. In the present study, the cytotoxic effect of verapamil on human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) and BALB/c peritoneal macrophges has be...
