In the past several years we demonstrated that the pineal neurohormone melatonin has
immunoenhancing properties and can counteract the immunodepres‐sion that may follow …

In an attempt to analyze the cellular and molecular basis of the capacity of bone marrow
stromal cells to support hematopoiesis in culture, we developed a series of murine stromal …

Two anti-nerve growth factor receptor (LNGFR or p75NGFR) antibodies, Me20. 4 and
Me8211, label stromal cells with dendritic features in fresh smears and in formalin-fixed …

The role of hematopoietic stem cells in blood cell development is reasonably understood,
whereas the identity and the function of bone marrow stromal cells are much less clear …

Pluri-differentiated human mesenchymal progenitor cells (MPCs) are isolated. A method
isolates and purifies human mesenchymal progenitor cells from Dexter-type cultures for …

We have reported that melatonin may rescue bone marrow cells from apoptosis induced
either in vivo or in vitro by cancer chemotherapy compounds via bone marrow T-cells and …

Progressive renal fibrosis is considered to be the final common pathway leading to chronic
renal insufficiency. In this study, the authors examined some of the cellular and molecular …

Pathogenesis of interstitial fibrosis in chronic purine aminonucleoside nephrosis. A cellular
and molecular approach was used to gain new insight into the pathogenesis of interstitial …

Because of the absence of a specific marker for labeling resident macrophages in the rat,
there is almost no information available regarding the properties of individual resident …

We have previously shown the adherent nontransformed, nonimmortalized murine bone
marrow stromal cell (BMSC) population to consist of phagocytic macrophage and …
