Assessment of the symmetry of stem-cell mitoses.

چکیده

A model of Paneth-cell renewal in the small intestinal epithelium is used to estimate the probability that epithelial stem-cell mitoses are symmetric in the sense that they produce two cells of the same type. I found that counts of the number of Paneth cells per crypt (Paneth cells are terminally differentiated cells derived from small intestinal epithelial stem cells) support a model in which most, if not all, stem-cell mitoses are symmetric.

Assessment of Cyclosporine Serum Concentrations on the Incidence of Acute Graft versus Host Disease Post Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation

Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is a curative treatment option for hematological disorders. Cyclosporine (CsA) is one of the major immunosuppressive agents for the prophylaxis against graft versus host disease (GvHD). In this retrospective study, we evaluated the effects of CsA serum levels on the incidence of acute GvHD and transplant outcomes. 103 adult patients rece...

O 9: Immunomodulatory Effects of Neural Stem Cell on Multiple Sclerosis: A Systematic Review

Multiple sclerosis (MS) and its animal model, experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE), are chronic inflammatory demyelinating disorders of central nervous system (CNS). While the cause is unclear, the fundamental mechanism is thought to be destruction of myelin sheaths of neurons through immune system. One of the approaches being proposed in EAE therapy is neural stem cells (NSCs) trans...
