Follicular dendritic cell (FDC) precursors in primary lymphoid tissues.
The origin of follicular dendritic cells (FDC) is unresolved, and as such, remains controversial. Based on the migration of Ag-transporting cells (ATC) into lymphoid follicles and the phenotypic similarity between FDC and ATC, one hypothesis is that ATC may represent emigrating FDC precursors. This contrasts with the view that FDC originate from local stromal cells in the secondary lymphoid tis...
متن کاملMultipotent Mesenchymal Stromal Cells for Autoimmune Diseases.
SUMMARY: Multipotent mesenchymal stromal cells (MSC) are under consideration for the treatment of autoimmune disease (AD) based on their in vitro antiproliferative properties, efficacy in animal models, apparent low acute toxicity, and the early positive anecdotal outcomes in human acute graft versus host disease. Phase I/II clinical trials are under way in multiple sclerosis and Crohn's diseas...
متن کاملMultipotent human stromal cells improve cardiac function after myocardial infarction in mice without long-term engraftment.
The aim of this study was to determine whether intravenously administered multipotent stromal cells from human bone marrow (hMSCs) can improve cardiac function after myocardial infarction (MI) without long-term engraftment and therefore whether transitory paracrine effects or secreted factors are responsible for the benefit conferred. hMSCs were injected systemically into immunodeficient mice w...
متن کاملMultipotent and restricted precursors in the central nervous system.
Acquisition of cell type-specific properties in the nervous system is likely a process of sequential restriction in developmental potential. At least two classes of pluripotent stem cells, neuroepithelial (NEP) stem cells and EGF-dependent neurosphere stem cells, have been identified in distinct spatial and temporal domains. Pluripotent stem cells likely generate central nervous system (CNS) an...
متن کاملAsymmetrical lymphoid and myeloid lineage commitment in multipotent hematopoietic progenitors
Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) continuously replenish all classes of blood cells through a series of lineage restriction steps that results in the progressive loss of differentiation potential to other cell lineages. This review focuses on the recent advances in understanding one of the earliest differentiation steps in HSC maturation, which involves the diversification of the lymphoid and mye...
