The physiological development and homeostasis of the lung alveolus is determined by the expression of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-γ (PPAR-γ) by the interstitial lipofibroblast. We have recently shown (Dasgupta C et al., Am J Physiol Lung Cell Mol Physiol 296: L1031-L1041, 2009.) that PPAR-γ agonists administered postnatally accelerate lung maturation and prevent hyperoxia-induced...
The ability of dendritic cells (DC) to initiate immune responses in naive T cells is dependent upon a maturation process that allows the cells to develop their potent Ag-presenting capacity. Although immature DC can be derived in vitro by treatment of peripheral blood monocytes with GM-CSF and IL-4, additional signals such as those provided by TNF-alpha, CD40 ligand, or LPS are required for com...
Introduction: Dendritic cells have a high potential in presentation of antigens and can be generated and manipulated in invitro culture conditions. Dendritic cells(DC) are therefore used in cancer immunotherapy, in prevention of graft rejection, treatment of allergy, autoimmune diseases and certain infectious diseases. Methods: Dendritic cell was generated in two stages. IN the first stage, m...
The mechanisms that underpin the intriguing capacity of Fas ligation on dendritic cells (DCs) to induce maturation and activation, rather than apoptosis, remain unclear. In the present study we confirm that Fas signaling induces both phenotypic and functional maturation of murine DCs, and we demonstrate that phenotypic maturation is associated with phosphorylation of extracellular signal-regula...
Visna lentiviruses have a natural tropism for cells of the macrophage lineage of sheep and goats, but virus replication in these cells in vivo is restricted so that only small quantities of virus are produced. One restricting factor suggested in previous studies is that virus replication is dependent on the maturity of the cells: the more mature the cell, the less restrictive the replication of...
The capacity of dendritic cells (DC) to regulate adaptive immunity is controlled by their maturation state and lifespan. Although TNF is a well-known maturation and survival factor for DC, the role of the two TNFR, TNFR1 and TNFR2, in mediating these effects is poorly understood. By using unique TNF variants that selectively signal through TNFR1 and/or TNFR2, we demonstrate differential functio...
Mice transplanted with human cord blood-derived hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) became a powerful experimental tool for studying the heterogeneity of human immune reconstitution and immune responses in vivo. Yet, analyses of human T cell maturation in humanized models have been hampered by an overall low immune reactivity and lack of methods to define predictive markers of responsiveness. Long-...
Background Brazilian pine (Araucaria angustifolia (Bert) O. Ktze) is the only native conifer species with economic importance in Brazil. Recently, due to intensive exploitation Brazilian pine was included in the official list of endangered Brazilian plants. Biotechnology tools, like somatic embryogenesis (SE), may become a potentially useful tool for mass clonal propagation and ex situ conserva...
Titanium porous scaffolds comprising multimodal pore ranges (i.e., uni-, bi-, tri-modal and random) were studied to evaluate the effect of size on osteoblastogenesis. The manufactured using spaceholder-powder metallurgy, porosity kept independent. Their mechanical physical properties stiffness, strength, total open porosity) determined. In a first step, unimodal samples tested with mouse osteob...
