Epiblast embryo stem cells give origin to adult pluripotent cell populations: Primordial germ cell, pericytic and haematopoyetic stem cells. A review Las células madre del epiblasto dan origen a poblaciones de células pluripotentes adultas: Células germin
(Universidad de la Frontera, 2009)
Adult stem cells are great promise to the future of regenerative therapy, and understanding of its embryonic origin permit the discrimination of stem cell sources. Embryonic stem cells derived from inner cell mass of ...
Insulin is secreted upon glucose stimulation by both gastrointestinal enteroendocrine K-cells and L-cells engineered with the preproinsulin gene
(2011)
Transgenic mice carrying the human insulin gene driven by the K-cell glucose-dependent insulinotropic peptide (GIP) promoter secrete insulin and display normal glucose tolerance tests after their pancreatic β-cells have ...
A flow cytometric procedure for the quantification of cell adhesion in complex mixtures of cells
(1999)
We present a simple non-radioactive cytometry-based assay that permits the simultaneous quantitation of cell adhesion of distinct subsets of cells contained in a mixture without any previous fractionation. The procedure ...
Therapeutic potential of hyporesponsive CD4+ T cells in autoimmunity
(Frontiers Media S.A., 2015)
© 2015 Maggi, Schafer, Ubilla-Olguín, Catalán, Schinnerling and Aguillón. The interaction between dendritic cells (DCs) and T cells is crucial on immunity or tolerance induction. In an immature or semi-mature state, DCs ...
Anti-TNF therapy in patients with rheumatoid arthritis decreases Th1 and Th17 cell populations and expands IFN-γ-producing NK cell and regulatory T cell subsets
(2011)
The aim of this work was to study the effect of anti-TNF treatment on CD4+ Th1, Th17 and regulatory T cells (Tregs), together with CD8+ T cells and NK cells from rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients. For this purpose, 18 RA ...
Metformin prevents nerve growth factor-dependent proliferative and proangiogenic effects in epithelial ovarian cancer cells and endothelial cells
(SAGE Publications Inc., 2018)
© The Author(s), 2018. Background: Epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) is characterized by exacerbated angiogenesis regulated by proangiogenic and growth factors. Nerve growth factor (NGF) is overexpressed in EOC where it ...
Regeneration in zebrafish lateral line neuromasts: Expression of the neural progenitor cell marker Sox2 and proliferation-dependent and -independent mechanisms of hair cell renewal
(2007)
Mechanosensory hair cells are essential for audition in vertebrates, and in many species, have the capacity for regeneration when damaged. Regeneration is robust in the fish lateral line system as new hair cells can reappear ...
Cell migration: From tissue culture to embryos
(Company of Biologists Ltd, 2014)
Cell migration is a fundamental process that occurs during embryo development. Classic studies using in vitro culture systems have been instrumental in dissecting the principles of cell motility and highlighting how cells ...
Innate immune cells' contribution to systemic lupus erythematosus
(Frontiers Media S.A., 2019)
Copyright © 2019 Herrada, Escobedo, Iruretagoyena, Valenzuela, Burgos, Cuitino and Llanos.Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a chronic autoimmune disease characterized by the presence of autoantibodies against nuclear ...
Differential steroidogenic response of human luteal cell subpopulations
(Oxford University, 1996)
The differentia] capacity for steroid synthesis of human
luteal cell subpopulations was investigated in a well defined
cell culture system. Corpora lutea were enzymatically
dissociated, and the two cell types were ...
