Chemokine receptor expressions and responsiveness of cord blood T cells.
Chemokines and their receptors play a critical role in the selective attraction of various subsets of leukocytes. We examined the chemokine receptor expressions and responsiveness of cord blood (CB) T cells. Flow-cytometric analysis revealed that peripheral blood (PB) T cells expressed CCR-1, CCR-2, CCR-5, CCR-6, CXC chemokine receptor-3 (CXCR-3), and CXCR-4, while CB T cells expressed only CXC...
متن کاملCD26+ Cord Blood Mononuclear Cells Significantly Produce B, T, and NK Cells
Background: Umbilical cord blood (UCB) is an alternative source of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), used in Leukemia treatment. CD26+ cells, a fraction of CD34 positive cells, are a major population of UCB cells which negatively regulate the in vivo homing and engraftment of HSCs. CD26 is highly expressed in various cells such as HSCs, immune cells, fibroblasts, and epithelial ce...
متن کاملCord Blood Vα24-Vβ11+ Natural Killer T Cells Display a Th2-Chemokine Receptor Profile and Cytokine Responses
BACKGROUND The fetal immune system is characterized by a Th2 bias but it is unclear how the Th2 predominance is established. Natural killer T (NKT) cells are a rare subset of T cells with immune regulatory functions and are already activated in utero. To test the hypothesis that NKT cells are part of the regulatory network that sets the fetal Th2 predominance, percentages of Vα24(+)Vβ11(+) NKT ...
متن کاملDifferent Expressions of Specific Transcription Factors of Th1 (T-bet) and Th2 cells (GATA-3) by Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells From Patients With Multiple Sclerosis
Introduction: Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is an inflammatory disorder caused by self-reactive Th1 lymphocytes, while Th2 cells may confer protection. The Th1 and Th2 cell differentiation are regulated by specific transcription factors, especially T-bet and GATA-3, respectively. This investigation aimed to measure the T-bet and GATA-3 expression by Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells (PBMCs) obtained...
