Factors controlling stem cell recirculation. III. Effect of the thymus on the migration and differentiation of hemopoietic stem cells.

چکیده
Experiments were carried out to investigate the effect of thymectomy on the migration and differentiation of hemopoietic stem cells released from shielded parts of bone marrow after irradiation of mice with lethal doses of x-rays. In 2-3 wk after thymectomy, the rate of migration declined and the differentiation of stem cells into granulocytic colonies was inhibited. Transplantation of syngeneic thymus or lymph node cells into thymectomized mice enhanced the migration of stem cells from the bone marrow and restored the usual pathways of their differentiation.

Introduction: Embryonic Stem (ES) cells as pluripotent cells derived from the inner cell mass of blastula can differentiate to neural cells in vitro and this property is valuable in studies of neurogenesis and in the generation of donor cells for transplantation. In this regard, the propose of this research, was the study of the role of two important factors in the development of neural syst...

Background: Germ cell development processes are influenced by soluble factors and intercellular signaling events between them and the neighboring somatic cells. More insight into the molecular biology of the germ cell development from embryonic stem (ES) cells and investigation of appropriate factors, specifically those targeting differentiation process, is of great importance. In this study, w...
متن کاملA Glance into Cancer Stem Cells
The presence of stem cells in leukemia and solid tumors has been demonstrated in recent decades. Cancer stem cells have the potency of tumorigenesis; furthermore, they have the ability of self-renewing and differentiation like other stem cells. They also play important role in the process of tumor invasion and metastasis. Several studies have been performed to discover the spe...
متن کاملDifferentiation of human embryonic stem cells into neurons
Human embryonic stem (ES) cells are undifferentiated pluripotent cells derived from the inner cell mass of blastocyst stage embryos. These unique cell lines have the potential to form virtually any cell type in the body and can be propagated in vitro indefinitely in an undifferentiated state. These cells are capable of forming embryoid bodies (EB) that contain cells from all three embryonic lin...
