Expression of transferrin receptor on murine hematopoietic progenitors.
نویسندگان
چکیده
We have used a monoclonal antibody against the murine transferrin receptor to study the expression of the transferrin receptor on the hematopoietic progenitor cells (BFU-E, CFU-E, and CFU-C) present in mouse bone marrow. Elutriation and cell-sorting data are consistent with the hypothesis that most CFU-E are transferrin receptor positive while most BFU-E express much less transferrin receptor. CFU-C comprise both transferrin-receptor-positive and -negative cells.

Cytotoxic activity of an anti-transferrin receptor immunotoxin on normal and leukemic human hematopoietic progenitors.
The process of cellular iron uptake involves a specific receptor for the plasma carrier transferrin and a pathway of receptor-mediated endocytosis. Transferrin receptor expression is closely related to the rate of cell proliferation, and conjugates between anti-transferrin receptor monoclonal antibodies and toxins have been shown to have potent cytotoxic activity. We have constructed an anti-tr...

Many investigators have used xenogeneic, especially murine stromal cells and fetal calf serum to maintain and expand human stem cells. The proliferation and expansion of human hematopoietic stem cells in ex vivo culture were examined with the goal of generating a suitable protocol for expanding hematopoietic stem cells for patient transplantation. Using primary fetal liver cells, we established...
متن کاملModulation of murine embryonic stem cell-derived CD41+c-kit+ hematopoietic progenitors by ectopic expression of Cdx genes.
Cdx1, Cdx2, and Cdx4 comprise the caudal-like Cdx gene family in mammals, whose homologues regulate hematopoietic development in zebrafish. Previously, we reported that overexpression of Cdx4 enhances hematopoietic potential from murine embryonic stem cells (ESCs). Here we compare the effect of ectopic Cdx1, Cdx2, and Cdx4 on the differentiation of murine ESC-derived hematopoietic progenitors. ...
متن کاملC/EBPalpha determines hematopoietic cell fate in multipotential progenitor cells by inhibiting erythroid differentiation and inducing myeloid differentiation.
C/EBPalpha is an essential transcription factor required for myeloid differentiation. While C/EBPalpha can act as a cell fate switch to promote granulocyte differentiation in bipotential granulocyte-macrophage progenitors (GMPs), its role in regulating cell fate decisions in more primitive progenitors is not known. We found increased numbers of erythroid progenitors and erythroid cells in C/EBP...
متن کاملIdentification and characterization of two types of erythroid progenitors that express GATA-1 at distinct levels Running heads: GATA-1 expression in erythroid progenitors Category: Hematopoiesis
Transcription factor GATA-1 is essential for the development of the erythroid lineage. To ascertain whether strict control of GATA-1 expression level is necessary for achieving proper erythropoiesis, we established transgenic mouse lines expressing green fluorescent protein (GFP) under the control of the GATA-1 gene hematopoietic regulatory domain. We examined the GATA-1 expression level by exp...
