Download or read book Cytokine Synergies in Erythropoiesis written by Daniel Horner and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The directed differentiation of hematopoietic cells demands fine-grained control over cell decisions. Experiments were performed to distinguish the distinct and joint effects of two cytokines---erythropoietin (EPO) and stem cell factor (SCF)---on proliferation and survival in red blood cell progenitors. An in vitro model was used to quantify these effects on erythroid progenitors. Using factorial design approach, EPO and SF were shown to have merely additive effects on cell number in two cell lines: one human erythroleukemia (TF-1), and one mouse multipotential cell line (FRCP-mix). However, a synergistic expansion of erythroid cells within differentiating FDCP-mix cultures was observed. Cell division tracking, coupled with a mathematical model of cell proliferation, quantified this response as separate sequential effects: SCF promoted early proliferation of all progenitor cells, and EPO was necessary for survival of committed erythroid progenitors. This quantitative approach suggests how separation of proliferation from death rates can identify meaningful synergism.

Download or read book Hematopoietic Stem Cell Biology written by Motonari Kondo and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2009-12-04 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the summer of 1988, my developmental biology professor announced to the class that hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) had finally been purified. Somehow, I never forgot the professor’s words. When I started working in Dr. Irv Weissman’s labo- tory at Stanford as a postdoctoral fellow, I realized that the findings mentioned by the professor were from Weissman’s laboratory and had been published in a 1988 edition of the journal Science. It has been over 20 years since the publication of that seminal paper, and since then tremendous advances in understanding the biology and maturation of HSCs, namely the process of hematopoiesis, which includes lymphocyte development, have been made. These discoveries were made possible in part by advancements in technology. For example, recent availability of user friendly fluorescence activated cell sorting (FACS) machines and monoclonal an- bodies with a variety of fluorescent labels has allowed more scientists to sort and analyze rare populations in the bone marrow, such as HSCs. All classes of hematopoietic cells are derived from HSCs. Stem cell biology draws enormous attention not only from scientists, but also from ordinary people because of the tremendous potential for development of new therapeutic application to diseases that currently lack any type of effective therapy. Thus, this type of “regenerative medicine” is a relatively new and attractive field in both basic science and clinical medicine.
