Enhanced Survival and Neurite Network Formation of Human Umbilical Cord Blood Neuronal Progenitors in Three-Dimensional Collagen Constructs
Umbilical cord blood (CB) stem cells have been proposed for cell-based therapeutic applications for diverse diseases of the CNS. We hypothesized that tissue-engineering strategies may extend the efficacy of th...

Anti-T Lymphocyte Globulin (ATG) Induces Generation of Regulatory T Cells, at Least Part of Them Express Activated CD44
We show here that the anti-T lymphocyte immunoglobulin (ATG) can induce Treg cells following 24-h incubation in human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs). The ATG-induced Treg cells express known cell s...

Open AccessNeuroblastoma Cell Death is Induced by Inorganic Arsenic Trioxide (As2O3) and Inhibited by a Normal Human Bone Marrow Cell-Derived Factor
Three phenotypically distinct cell types are present in human neuroblastomas (NB) and NB cell lines: I-type stem cells, N-type neuroblastic precursors, and S-type Schwannian/melanoblastic precursors. The stimu...
