Isolation of Mouse Lymphocytes from Small Intestine Tissues

Isolation of γδT cells from mouse small intestine

Gamma/delta T cells (γδТ cells) are among the first lymphoid cells appearing in the ontogenesis. Many of γδТ cells are located in the small intestine/lamina propria of mice and human, where they cooperate with different cells (B-1 cells, in particular) and influence their activity. However, such interactions are studied rather scanty, and the functional role of γδТ cells in the intestine is not...

Intraepithelial lymphocytes of the small intestine.

Isolation of Functional Mitochondria from Cultured Cells and Mouse Tissues.

Mitochondria serve as the center stage for a number of cellular processes, including energy production, apoptosis, ion homeostasis, iron and copper processing, steroid metabolism, de novo pyrimidine, and heme biosynthesis. The study of mitochondrial function often requires the purification of intact and respiratory-competent organelles. Here, we provide detailed protocols to isolate functional ...

Isolation of mesenchymal stem cells from fetal tissues

Backgrond&Objective: The ability of mesenchymalstem cells (MSCs) differentiation into many cell types, as well as their ex vivo expansion potential, makes them as an attractive therapeutic tool for cell transplantation and tissue engineering. This project was designed to improve isolation culture and characterization of human amniotic membran-derivedMSSCS and human warton ,s jelly- derived MSCs...

GPR18 Controls Reconstitution of Mouse Small Intestine Intraepithelial Lymphocytes following Bone Marrow Transplantation

Specific G protein coupled receptors (GPRs) regulate the proper positioning, function, and development of immune lineage subsets. Here, we demonstrate that GPR18 regulates the reconstitution of intraepithelial lymphocytes (IELs) of the small intestine following bone marrow transplantation. Through analysis of transcriptional microarray data, we find that GPR18 is highly expressed in IELs, lymph...
