Phenotypic Characterization of Leukocytes in Prenatal Human Dermis
The adult human skin harbors a variety of leukocytes providing immune surveillance and host defense, but knowledge about their ontogeny is scarce. In this study we investigated the number and phenotype of leukocytes in prenatal human skin (dermal dendritic cells (DDCs), macrophages, T cells (including FoxP3(+) regulatory T cells), and mast cells) to unravel their derivation and to get a clue as...
متن کاملCD3- Leukocytes Present in the Human Uterus During Early Placentation: Phenotypic and Morphologic Characterization of the CD56++ Population
In this study, the CD3- LGL/NK cells present in the pregnant human uterus have been characterized. Phenotypic and morphologic analyses of decidual LGL revealed many similarities to the minor CD56bright+, CD16- subset in peripheral blood, but there were some important differences. The relative surface density of CD56+ is greatly increased on decidual LGL to 22x that found on the majority of CD56...
متن کاملPhenotypic Characterization of Human Intermediate Monocytes
A full understanding of the immune system requires full characterization of the cells, and its subsets, which play a role in the process of host defense. The expression pattern of cell surface molecules serves as a major criterion for assigning cells into discrete subsets. The availability of monoclonal reagents, specific fluorescent probes and compatible instrumentation over the past years has...
متن کاملCollagenase production by human dermis in vitro.
Isolated human dermis has been shown to produce a specific collagenase in vitro. Enzyme activity becomes detectable after two days of culture, reaches a peak on the fourth day, and then begins to decline. Like collagenase obtained from cultures of whole human skin, dermal collagenase is inhibited by human serum and EDTA. The possible sources of this enzyme are discussed. Collagenolytic activity...
