Beta-catenin-mediated Wnt signaling has been suggested to be critically involved in hematopoietic stem cell maintenance and development of T and B cells in the immune system. Unexpectedly, here we report that inducible Cre-loxP-mediated inactivation of the ...
Bone is a natural cellular composite, with a gradient structure going from a loose interconnected core to an outer dense wall, thus minimising bone weight while maintaining a high mechanical performance. Bone can be repaired using either auto- or allo- gra ...
The aim of this investigation was to test the biocompatibility of three-dimensional bioresorbable foams made of poly(L-lactic acid) (PLA), alone or filled with hydroxyapatite (HA) or beta-tricalcium phosphate (beta-TCP), with human primary osteoblasts, usi ...
Allogeneic cells are the most attractive source for cell transplantation, as the use of xenogeneic cells is hampered by safety concerns and the use of autologous cells involves practical difficulties. The immune rejection of allogeneic cells can be overcom ...
Notch signaling regulates many cell fate decisions during development of multi-cellular organisms. Signals initiated by Notch influence a wide variety of processes that include lineage specification, cell survival and proliferation, and border formation. D ...
The present study investigates the respective roles of both the host immune response and the metabolic requirements in determining the long-term survival of erythropoietin-secreting myoblasts within encapsulating polymer membranes. Hollow-fiber capsules lo ...
Generating lentiviral vectors pseudotyped with different viral glycoproteins (GPs) may modulate the physicochemical properties of the vectors, their interaction with the host immune system, and their host range. We have investigated the capacity of a panel ...
Allergic asthma is characterized by airway hyperresponsiveness, eosinophilia, and mucus accumulation and is associated with increased IgE concentrations. We demonstrate here that peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs), PPAR-alpha and PPAR-gamm ...
The transplantation of genetically engineered cells faces limitations associated with host immunity. Allogeneic cells are typically rejected in response to inherent histo-incompatibility. Even autologous cells can induce an immune response toward antigenic ...
BACKGROUND: Existing animal models of anemia inadequately reflect the hematocrit usually present in chronic renal failure (CRF) patients and do not permit long-term treatment studies. The transgenic mouse strain 134.3LC (Epo-TAg(H)) displays a severe chron ...
