Protein Tyrosine Phosphatase Gamma (PTPγ) is a Novel Leukocyte Marker Highly Expressed by CD34+ Precursors
Protein Tyrosine Phosphatase gamma (PTPgamma) is a receptor-like transmembrane protein belonging to the family of classical protein tyrosine phosphatases. PTPgamma is known to regulate haematopoietic differentiation in a murine embryonic stem cells model. We have recently demonstrated that PTPgamma mRNA is expressed in monocytes, tissue-localized myeloid dendritic cells and in both myeloid and ...
متن کاملHemozoin Enhances Maturation of Murine Bone Marrow Derived Macrophages and Myeloid Dendritic Cells
Background: Falciparum malaria is a severe health burden worldwide. Antigen presenting cells are reported to be affected by erythrocytic stage of the parasite. Malarial hemozoin (HZ), a metabolite of malaria parasite, has adjuvant properties and may play a role in the induction of immune response against the parasite. Objective: To determine the immunological impact of hemozoin on the capacity ...
متن کاملReceptor tyrosine phosphatase PTPγ is a regulator of spinal cord neurogenesis
During spinal cord development the proliferation, migration and survival of neural progenitors and precursors is tightly controlled, generating the fine spatial organisation of the cord. In order to understand better the control of these processes, we have examined the function of an orphan receptor protein tyrosine phosphatase (RPTP) PTPγ, in the developing chick spinal cord. Widespread expres...
متن کاملEvaluation of Possible Role of Dendritic Cells in Various Lupus Nephritis
Background & Objectives: Chronicity of lupus nephritis (LN) should be considered for interaction of cell mediated immunity (CMI) and dendritic cells in glomeruli and tubulointerstitial areas. In this study establishment of immunohistopathological changes of dendritic cells and other immune effector cells in lupus nephritis comparing with non-lupus nephritis was performed. Materials & Methods: ...
متن کاملA Novel Inhibitory Receptor (ILT3) Expressed on Monocytes, Macrophages, and Dendritic Cells Involved in Antigen Processing
Immunoglobulin-like transcript (ILT) 3 is a novel cell surface molecule of the immunoglobulin superfamily, which is selectively expressed by myeloid antigen presenting cells (APCs) such as monocytes, macrophages, and dendritic cells. The cytoplasmic region of ILT3 contains putative immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibitory motifs that suggest an inhibitory function of ILT3. Indeed, co-ligation o...
