Comparison of Several Maturation Inducing Factors in Dendritic Cell Differentiation
Background: Dendritic cells (DCs) are professional antigen presenting cells that have an important role in the initiation of immune response. The use of maturation factors in dendritic cell differentiation provides a promising approach in immunotherapy. Objective: In this study, we compared tumor necrosis factor-α, polyribocytidylic acid, lipopolysacharide and CpG oligonucleotides in inducing d...

متن کاملContributions of cell-extrinsic and cell-intrinsic factors to the differentiation of a neural-crest-derived neuroendocrine progenitor cell.
A central question in developmental neurobiology concerns the mechanisms that generate cellular diversity in the vertebrate nervous system. Cell lineage analyses have established that many progenitor cells in the developing nervous system are multipotent (Turner and Cepko 1987; Holt et al. 1988; Wetts and Fraser 1988). However, the mechanisms that control the differentiation of such progenitor ...
متن کاملIdentification of astrocyte-expressed factors that modulate neural stem/progenitor cell differentiation.
Multipotent neural stem/progenitor cells (NSPCs) can be isolated from many regions of the adult central nervous system (CNS), yet neurogenesis is restricted to the hippocampus and subventricular zone in vivo. Identification of the molecular cues that modulate NSPC fate choice is a prerequisite for their therapeutic applications. Previously, we demonstrated that primary astrocytes isolated from ...
متن کاملCollagen scaffolds for hematopoietic progenitor cell expansion and controlled differentiation.
Controlled expansion and differentiation of primitive hematopoietic progenitor cells (HPCs) could allow the transfusion of specific blood cells in large quantities in patients treated with high dose chemoor radiotherapy. In this study, we introduce the development of a novel, tissue engineering inspired approach to HPC expansion. We present the development of porous crosslinked collagen structu...
