Interferon-γ-induced neuronal differentiation of human umbilical cord blood-derived progenitors
Human umbilical cord blood (HUCB) provides a source of progenitors for cell therapy. We isolated and characterized an HUCB-derived population of progenitors (HUCBNP), differentiated toward neuronal phenotype b...

The CXCR4 antagonist AMD3100 impairs survival of human AML cells and induces their differentiation
The chemokine stromal cell-derived factor-1 (SDF-1) and its receptor, CXCR4, participate in the retention of acute myeloblastic leukemia (AML) cells within the bone marrow microenvironment and their release in...

Gene expression profiles of AML derived stem cells; similarity to hematopoietic stem cells
Tumors contain a fraction of cancer stem cells that maintain the propagation of the disease. The CD34+CD38− cells, isolated from acute myeloid leukemia (AML), were shown to be enriched leukemic stem cells (LSC...

Multilineage hematopoietic engraftment after allogeneic peripheral blood stem cell transplantation without conditioning in SCID patients
Successful stem cell transplantation for patients with severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID) from matched family donors without conditioning results in engraftment of T lymphocytes. B lymphocytes engraft in ...

Chimerism testing and detection of minimal residual disease after allogeneic hematopoietic transplantation using the bioView (Duet™) combined morphological and cytogenetical analysis
Recurrent disease remains a major obstacle to cure after allogeneic transplantation. Various methods have been developed to detect minimal residual disease (MRD) after transplantation to identify patients at r...
