摘要:
An isolated human cell is disclosed comprising at least one mesenchymal stem cell phenotype and secreting brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), wherein a basal secretion of the BDNF is at least five times greater than a basal secretion of the BDNF in a mesenchymal stem cell. Methods of generating same and uses of same are also disclosed.
摘要:
The present invention relates to, among others, an in vitro method of modifying a cell graft containing immune cells comprising the steps of incubating a cell graft containing immune cells with an anti CD4 antibody wherein said incubating is carried out for from 1 minute to 7 days, b) removing unbound antibody from said graft; as well as to corresponding modified grafts and uses. The invention further relates to the modification of antibodies reactive to the CD4 human leukocyte antigen to provide anti-CD4 antibodies that have a reduced number of potential T-cell epitopes but retain the ability to bind to CD4, such as to an anti human CD4-antibody comprising a heavy chain immunoglobulin variable domain (VH) and a light chain immunoglobulin variable domain (VL), wherein at least one T cell epitope located outside the CDRs of said immunoglobulin variable domains is removed from said immunoglobulin variable domains. Preferably, the specificity and mode of action of the anti-CD4 antibodies are not affected by the modification(s).
摘要:
The present invention provides the new use of composition comprising at least one inhibitor of dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPP-IV) for increasing migration and homing of haematopoetic progenitor cells in stem cell transplanted recipients, wherein said haematopoetic stem and/or progenitor cells had been treated in vitro with an engraftment enhancing compound, specifically with a prostacyclin analogue and a cAMP enhancer before transplantation.
摘要:
The present invention provides a technique which enables organization of bone marrow cells by a simple method in a short period of time.A method for preparing a bone marrow cell aggregate, comprising adding a liquid containing a bone marrow cell population to a medium containing a swellable material and culturing the bone marrow cell population in the presence of the swellable material. A method for reassembling a bone marrow tissue, comprising adding a liquid containing a bone marrow cell population to a medium containing a swellable material and culturing the bone marrow cell population in the presence of the swellable material.According to common knowledge in the art, it has been considered difficult to reorganize once disintegrated bone marrow tissue without changing the cell composition (that is, without adding any adherent cell or extracellular matrix which will work as a “connecting material (binder)”). Indeed, it was impossible to aggregate bone marrow cells by conventional methods. As a result of its achievement, the present invention changes such conventional thought and results and provides a major breakthrough technique pertaining to 3D culture of bone marrow cells. It has also been confirmed that culture of a bone marrow-like tissue reassembled by the method of the present could be continued up to day 14 in the MC medium.
摘要:
In some aspects, the invention relates to compositions comprising marrow infiltrating lymphocytes (“MILs”). The MILs may be activated MILs. In some aspects, the invention relates to methods for activating MILs, comprising incubating MILs in an environment comprising less than 21% oxygen. In some aspects, the invention relates to methods for treating cancer in a subject, comprising administering to the subject a composition comprising activated MILs.
摘要:
This invention is about a separation system (1) that effectively separates the biological material into its different components with the effect of centrifugal force and performs processes such as separation of stem cells from bone marrow or fatty tissue with ease.
摘要:
Human progenitor T cells that are able to successfully engraft a murine thymus and differentiate into mature human T and NK cells are described. The human progenitor T cells have the phenotype CD34+CD7+CD 1a−CD5− or CD34+CD7+CD1a−CD5+ and are derived from human hematopoietic stem cells, embryonic stem cells and induced pluripotent stem cells by coculture with cells expressing a Notch receptor ligand (OP9-DL1 or OP9-DL4). Such cells are useful in a variety of applications including immune reconstitution, the treatment of immunodeficiencies and as carriers for genes used in gene therapy.

摘要:
A biological composition has a mixture of mechanically selected allogeneic biologic material derived from bone marrow. The mixture has non-whole cellular components including vesicular components and active and inactive components of biological activity, cell fragments, cellular excretions, cellular derivatives, and extracellular components. The mixture including non-whole cell fractions including one or more of exosomes, transcriptosomes, proteasomes, membrane rafts, lipid rafts. The mixture is compatible with biologic function.
摘要:
The purpose of the present invention is to provide: a method for preparing a cell product for use in the production of an implant, which can improve the surface properties of a material by a simple technique and can integrate a bone with a metallic implant material satisfactorily within a given period of time; a product produced by the method; and a sophisticated implant produced using the product. A cell product containing Col-I, OCN, OPN, BSP, fibronectin and VEGF or another growth factor which are produced by a bone marrow stromal cell or an immortalized milk teeth stem cell is prepared from the bone marrow stromal cell or the immortalized milk teeth stem cell, and a sophisticated implant having the growth factor immobilized on the surface thereof is provided using the resultant cell product and a mineralizing solution.
