abstract

cryopreservation is the method of choice for long term storage of human pbmcs. this study was designed to compare the different combinations of variables affecting the cryopreservation of pbmcs samples. the viability of pbmcs separated from 2×5 ml peripheral blood samples obtained from 16 healthy adult volunteers, were measured using trypan blue dye exclusion method just before freezing with different concentrations of dmso (10, 15, and 20%) and fbs (40 or 70%) at two different temperatures (either 4oc or 25oc). then after 2 weeks the cells were thawed and the viability was measured again. also the pbmcs response to pha was measured after 48 h using mtt assay. the effects of the different variables were calculated and compared among the groups. a total of 192 pbmcs cryotubes made from blood samples of 16 volunteers were tested. the viability of the cells obtained by the two centrifugation procedure was the same (both more than 99%). the concentration of the fbs (40 vs 70%) did not show to have significant effects on either cells viability or response to pha. on the other hand 20% dmso concentration and freezing temperature at 25oc decreased both cells. based on the obtained results, it is recommended to centrifuge the pbmcs under higher revolt speed at shorter time (700 g for 20 minutes) and decrease the fbs concentration to 40%. the dmso concentration should be kept at 10-15% and the freezing medium be cooled down to 4oc.

Study of radio protective effect of Thymus vulgaris essential oil against ionizing radiation on peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs)

Introduction: Today ionizing radiation (IR) plays an important role in medicine, both in diagnostic and therapeutic field. Doctors, medical staff and patients are all in danger of side effects of IR so there is a need to protect them against deleterious effects of ionizing radiation.  Thymus vulgaris has biological activities like antioxidant and antibacterial activity. Aim of...

Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells

Numerous cell types are involved in maintenance of the intestinal tissue. However, the main players are cells of the epithelial lining and the immune system. Human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) are used to investigate the effect of food bioactives on various immune cells. These cells are easily isolated from blood of healthy donors or buffy coats (leukocyte concentrates, a by-produ...

The Influence of Iron Loading and Iron Chelation on the Proliferation and Telomerase Activity of Human Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells

Background: Iron is an essential trace element in cell proliferation. Several investigations demonstrate that iron deprivation inhibits cell proliferation. However, the impact of iron on telomerase activity of activated lymphocytes remains unexplained to date. Objective: In this study, the effect of iron on the proliferation and telomerase activity of lymphocytes stimulated by phytohemagglutini...

Effect of 900 MHz Electromagnetic Radiation on the Induction of ROS in Human Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells

Background, Despite numerous studies over a decade, it still remains controversial about the biological effects of RF EMF emitted by mobile phone telephony. Objective, Here we investigated the effect of 900 MHz GSM on the induction of oxidative stress and the level of intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) in human mononuclear cells, monocytes and lymphocytes as defence system cells. Metho...
