immunophenotyping of lymphocytes is very essential for evaluation of immune system. due  to  the  effect  of  environmental  factors  and  ethnical diversity on  immune  system, establishment of an internal normal range of lymphocyte subsets is a necessity for each population.  the  aim  of  this  study  was  to  determine  the  normal  range  of  t  and  b lymphocytes, and nk cells in normal i...

in our search for new anticancer medicinal plants, the antiproliferative activity of the methanol extract of daphne mucronata (thymelaeaceae) was evaluated using human myelogenous leukemia k562 cells. the cells responded to plant treatments in a dose dependent manner and the ic50 of the crude extract (equivalent to 1 g of plant leaves powder per ml) and the purified active component were found ...

background: immunophenotypic characterization of the leukemic cells has been widely used as a tool for diagnosis, classification, stratification and prognosis of leukaemia. objective: to investigate the immunophenotypic subtype profiles of iranian patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (all) and its association to disease outcome. methods: in this study, a total of 60 iranian patients with ...

flow cytometry (fcm) was used to determine the ploidy levels of six different populationsof agropyron cristatum (l.) gaertn. (poaceae) in iran, using a diploid cultivated barley (hordeumvulgare l.) as an internal reference. according to flow cytometric data, tetraploid (2n = ± 28) andhexaploid (2n = ± 42) levels were detected among the examined populations and these results weresupported by chr...

mitochondrial functions have a major impact on t-cell functionality. in this study we characterized whether mitochondrial function in the neonatal t-cells differs from that in the adult t-cells during short t-cell activation. methods: we used fow cytometry methods to test mitochondrial mass and to monitor mitochondrial ca2+ levels, mitochondrial potential and superoxide generation in parallel w...
