Phenotypic and Functional Comparison between Flask Adherent and Magnetic Activated Cell Sorted Monocytes Derived Dendritic Cells
Background: Generation of an effective dendritic cell (DC) based cancer vaccine depends on appropriate differentiation of monocytes in vitro. Objective: To compare the effects of monocyte separation methods, flask adherence (Flask-DC) and magnetic activated cell sorting (MACS-DC), on phenotypic and functional characteristics of resultant DCs. Methods: DCs from healthy volunteers were generated ...
متن کاملIn Vivo Effects of Calcitriol on Phenotypic and Functional Properties of Dendritic Cells
Background: Dendritic cells (DCs) play a central role in the initiation and expansion of T cell mediated immune responses with potential immunotherapy application. The compounds which have the ability to induce immunomodulatory effects on DCs may be employed for the treatment of immunopathologic conditions such as autoimmune diseases. Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the in v...
متن کاملGeneration of Mature Monocyte-Derived Dendritic Cells in the Presence of Heparin and Monocyte Conditioned Medium: Phenotypic and Functional Comparison
Background: Dendritic cells (DC) induce tumor or pathogen-specific T cell responses in humans. Several laboratories have developed culture systems, including maturation factors for human DC from peripheral blood monocytes. We comprehensively compared standard maturation stimulus, an autologous monocyte-conditioned medium (MCM), with heparin for their ability to promote uniformly mature DC that ...
متن کاملPhenotypic and functional analysis of positive selection in the gamma/delta T cell lineage
Recent evidence suggests that T cells expressing gamma/delta antigen receptors (T cell receptor [TCR]) are subject to positive selection during development. We have shown that T cells expressing a class I major histocompatibility complex (MHC)-specific gamma/delta TCR transgene (tg) are not positively selected in class I MHC-deficient, beta 2-microglobulin (beta 2m) gene knockout mice (tg+ beta...
متن کاملHuman Olfactory Ecto-mesenchymal Stem Cells Displaying Schwann-Cell-Like Phenotypes and Promoting Neurite Outgrowth in Vitro
Strategies of Schwann cell (SC) transplantation to regenerate the peripheral nerve injury involves many limitations. Stem cells can be used as alternative cell sources for differentiation into SCs. Given the high potential of neural crest-derived stem cells for the generation of multiple cell lineages, in this research, we considered whether olfactory ecto-mesenchymal stem cells (OE-MSCs) derive...
