Пре- и посттрансплантационные факторы, ассоциированные с первичной недостаточностью тяжелой дисфункцией трансплантата после аллогенной трансплантации гемопоэтических стволовых клеток при хроническом миелоидном лейкозеPre- and post-transplantation factors associated with primary graft failure severe poor function after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation for chronic myeloid leukemia

BACKGROUND Hematopoietic stem cells are retained within discrete bone marrow niches through the effects of cell adhesion molecules and chemokine gradients. However, a small proportion of hematopoietic stem cells can also be found trafficking in the peripheral blood. During induced stem cell mobilization a proteolytic microenvironment is generated, but whether proteases are also involved in phys...

Hematopoietic stem cell gene therapy holds the promise of being able to treat a variety of inherited and acquired diseases of the hematopoietic stem cell. However, to date, genetic modification of the human hematopoietic stem cell has been relatively inefficient. Here, we report the results of using a bioreactor system to expand hematopoietic cells after a brief retrovirus infection using a hig...

The adult hematopoietic system of mammals is a dynamic hierarchy of cells with the hematopoietic stem cell at its foundation. During embryonic development, the source and expansion potential of this cell remain unclear. Two sites of hematopoietic activity, the yolk sac and aorta-gonad-mesonephros (AGM) region, function in mouse ontogeny at the pre-liver stage of hematopoiesis. However, cellular...

Hematopoietic stem cells are capable of extensive self-renewal and expansion, particularly during embryonic growth. Although the molecular mechanisms involved with stem cell maintenance remain mysterious, it is now clear that an intraembryonic location, the aorta-gonad-mesonephros (AGM) region, is a site of residence and, potentially, amplification of the definitive hematopoietic stem cells tha...

introduction: a number of potential cell adhesion molecules, which mediate essential cell-to-cell or cell-to-matrix interactions, are expressed on the surface of cd34+ hematopoietic progenitor cells (hpcs), including integrins, cd44, and cxcr4. these molecules are essential for homing process. in this study, we compared the changes of expression of cd44 and cxcr4 on the cd34+ hematopoietic prog...

MicroRNAs influence hematopoietic differentiation, but little is known about their effects on the stem cell state. Here, we report that the microRNA processing enzyme Dicer is essential for stem cell persistence in vivo and a specific microRNA, miR-125a, controls the size of the stem cell population by regulating hematopoietic stem/progenitor cell (HSPC) apoptosis. Conditional deletion of Dicer...

the stem cells can be considered as the miracle of creation, because, they are a major reservoir of the bioactive factors, molecules and cells. these reservoir cells play a major role in development and growth of the tissues and organs. regardless of the differences in differentiation capacity of embryonic and adult stem cells, both the cells are rich sources of stem cells with therapeutic appl...

BACKGROUND The study of adult stem cells relies on the ability to isolate them using complex combinations of markers for flow cytometry. A recent study has used a tetracycline-regulatable H2B-GFP transgenic mouse model analogous to BrdU pulse-chase methods to fluorescently label quiescent skin stem cells in vivo. In this study, we sought to use these mice to fluorescently label hematopoietic st...

BACKGROUND Sub-optimal levels of vitamin D have been found to be highly prevalent in all age groups, with epidemiologic studies demonstrating a link between vitamin D deficiency and disease susceptibility, such as infection and cancer, and mortality rates. In adult transplant patients, it has been suggested that the immunomodulatory properties of vitamin D may have an important role in the prev...
