Thy-1+ dendritic epidermal cells belong to the T-cell lineage.
The murine epidermis contains a population of dendritic, Thy-1+ cells (Thy-1+ DEC). Although it is now clear that these cells are of bone marrow origin, extensive morphological, histochemical, and cell-membrane marker studies have not definitively placed them in any known hematopoietic differentiation pathway. Based on the observation that Thy-1+ DEC can be propagated in vitro with Con A and in...
متن کاملHuman Epidermal T Cells Predominately Belong to the Lineage Expressing
Normal human epidermis, long since dismissed as merely a protective covering for the body, is now recognized as a complex immunological unit . This concept is based on the demonstration that Langerhans cells (LCs)t are potent APCs for a variety of T cell (TC) responses and that keratinocytes (KC), at least upon stimulation, can secrete a plethora of immunomodulating cytokines (reviewed in refer...
متن کاملHuman epidermal T cells predominantly belong to the lineage expressing alpha/beta T cell receptor
The epidermis of clinically normal-appearing human skin harbors a phenotypically heterogeneous population of T lymphocytes (TCs), the majority of which are CD2+/CD3+/CD5+ "memory" cells, but in an unactivated state, and express the TCR-alpha/beta. In contrast to murine skin, only a very minor subpopulation of CD3+ cells in the human epidermis bears the TCR-gamma/delta. Epidermal TCs primarily a...
متن کاملThe Potential of Menstrual Blood-Derived Stem Cells in Differentiation to Epidermal Lineage: A Preliminary Report
BACKGROUND Menstrual blood-derived stem cells (MenSCs) are a novel source of stem cells that can be easily isolated non-invasively from female volunteered donor without ethical consideration. These mesenchymal-like stem cells have high rate of proliferation and possess multi lineage differentiation potency. This study was undertaken to isolate the MenSCs and assess their potential in differenti...
متن کاملThy-1+ and Thy-1- natural killer cells. Only Thy-1- natural killer cells suppress dendritic cells
Cells enriched for NK activity (poly I:C induced, x-ray resistant, and nonadherent), include two phenotypically and functionally different populations. Both populations of NK cells are AGM1+, Ly-1.1-, Ly-2.1-, Ia-, and have the morphology of large granular lymphocytes. One population, however, is Thy-1+ while the second population is Thy-1-. Thy-1+ NK cells lyse YAC-1 and P815 target cells; Thy...
