1. Let M be a complex manifold with a smooth boundary which will be denoted bM , dim C M = n. Let us denote M = M ∪ bM and assume for simplicity that M ⊂ ˜ M where˜M is a complex neighbourhood of M , dim C ˜ M = n, so that every point z ∈ bM is an interior point of˜M. Let us take a C ∞-function ρ : ˜ M → R such that M = z | ρ(z) < 0 , bM = z | ρ(z) = 0 ; dρ(z) = 0 for all z ∈ bM. (0.1) For any ...

This study aimed to understand the role of IL-10 secreted from bone marrow (BM) in a mouse model of pancreatic fibrosis. The severity of cerulein-induced inflammation, fibrosis, and the frequency of BM-derived myofibroblasts were evaluated in the pancreas of mice receiving either a wild-type (WT) BM or an IL-10 knockout (KO) BM transplantation. The area of collagen deposition increased signific...

OBJECTIVE Interleukin (IL)-7 is mainly produced in bone marrow (BM) that forms the niche for B cells. We previously demonstrated that BM also retains pathogenic memory CD4 T cells in murine models of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). However, it remains unknown whether BM-derived IL-7 is sufficient for the development of IBD and which cells form the niche for colitogenic memory CD4 T cells in B...

The contribution of IFN-gamma from bone marrow (BM) and non-BM-derived cells to glomerular and cutaneous delayed-type hypersensitivity (DTH) was studied in mice. Chimeric IFN-gamma mice (IFN-gamma(+/+) BM chimera), in which IFN-gamma production was restricted to BM-derived cells, were created by transplanting normal C57BL/6 (wild-type (WT)) BM into irradiated IFN-gamma-deficient mice. BM IFN-ga...

AIM To evaluate the association between the presence of CD8 and CD45RO T lymphocytes in bone marrow (BM), disseminated tumor cells (DTCs), tumor hypoxia and their impact on disease outcome. MATERIAL AND METHODS 91 naïve gastric cancer (GC) patients were enrolled into the study. DTCs, CD8- and CD45RO-positive T lymphocytes in BM were detected using immunocytochemistry. All patients were thorou...

The purpose of this investigation was to reveal the physiological bone remodeling mechanism by means of cellular interaction phenomenon between osteoblasts (OB) and bone marrow cells (BM) in vitro. When OB (1•~105 cells) originated from newborn mouse calvariaand BM (1•~106 cells) obtained from 4 weeks old mouse long bones were co-cultivated by using millicell as a separator in a CO2 incubator f...

After birth, the bone marrow (BM) is the principal site of hematopoiesis in mammals. Thus, a large number of newly formed blood cells must penetrate the wall of BM microvessels to enter the circulation. In addition, the BM appears to function as a lymphoid organ and is also part of the macrophagal system. Subsets of circulating lymphocytes and other cells of the immune system continuously home ...

introduction: dna extraction methods are very important for genetics research and diagnostic tests. in these methods are also important for detecting genetic diseases or in cancers for investigating genetic changes during cancer progression or treatment. therefore, selection of the best method for dna extraction from different samples such as bone marrow (bm) or peripheral blood (pb) and their ...

Characterization of the different lymphocyte populations in normal human bone marrow (BM) was attempted and compared to that in the peripheral blood (PB). B cells comprised 34% ± 11% of lymphocytes in BM and 23% ± 9% in PB. The majority of B cells carried 1gM in BM and lgG in the PB. In the BM, cells carrying complement or F receptors were fewer than cells carrying Ig, but in the PB they were e...

Objective(s) Extracellular matrix (ECM) and basement membrane (BM) play important roles in many developmental processes during development and after birth. Among the components of the BM, collagen fibers specially type IV are the most important parts. The aim of this study was to determine the time when collagen type IV appears in the BM of lens structure during mouse embryonic development. M...
