Development of Plasmacytoid and Conventional Dendritic Cell Subtypes from Single Precursor Cells Derived in Vitro and in Vivo ARTICLES Development of plasmacytoid and conventional dendritic cell subtypes from single precursor cells derived in vitro and in vivo Shalin H Naik1,2, Priyanka Sathe1,3, Hae-Young Park1,4, Donald Metcalf1, Anna I Proietto1,3, Aleksander Dakic1, Sebastian Carotta1, Meredith O’Keeffe1,4, Melanie Bahlo1, Anthony Papenfuss1, Jong-Young Kwak1,4,LiWu1 & Ken Shortman1 The development of functionally specialized subtypes of dendritic cells (DCs) can be modeled through the culture of bone marrow with the ligand for the cytokine receptor Flt3. Such cultures produce DCs resembling spleen plasmacytoid DCs (pDCs), http://www.nature.com/natureimmunology CD8+ conventional DCs (cDCs) and CD8– cDCs. Here we isolated two sequential DC-committed precursor cells from such cultures: dividing ‘pro-DCs’, which gave rise to transitional ‘pre-DCs’ en route to differentiating into the three distinct DC subtypes (pDCs, CD8+ cDCs and CD8– cDCs). We also isolated an in vivo equivalent of the DC-committed pro-DC precursor cell, which also gave rise to the three DC subtypes. Clonal analysis of the progeny of individual pro-DC precursors demonstrated that some pro-DC precursors gave rise to all three DC subtypes, some produced cDCs but not pDCs, and some were fully committed to a single DC subtype. Thus, commitment to particular DC subtypes begins mainly at this pro-DC stage. Dendritic cells (DCs) are antigen-presenting cells crucial for the innate macrophages12. Further ‘downstream’, ‘immediate’ precursors have and adaptive response to infection as well as for maintaining immune been identified for several DC types, including Ly6Chi monocytes as 3,4,6 13 Nature Publishing Group Group Nature Publishing tolerance to self tissue.

The lymphoid A more detailed and sequential map of the pathway of DC tissue–resident cDCs consist of different subtypes, including CD8+ development would be possible with a suitable culture model of the cDCs and CD8– cDCs2.

G K SHARMA, I C TALBOT From the Department ofPathology, University ofLeicester, Leicester Royal Infirmary SUMMARY Pulmonary megakaryocytes were quantitated in a series of 30 consecutive hospital nec- ropsies using a two stage immunoperoxidase stain for factor VIII related antigen. In all 30 cases they were found with a mean density of 14 65 megakaryocytes/cm2 in lung sections of 5 gm in thickness. The maximum concentration of intrapulmonary megakaryocytes was consistently found to be in the central zone of the right upper lobe. Less than 22% of the observed cells possessed abundant cytoplasm, the rest appearing as effete, naked, and seminaked nuclei. The mean megakaryocyte count was found to be increased in association with both respiratory pathology (positive smoking history and impaired lung function) and cardiovascular disease states-shock; thromboembolism; myocardial infarction; and severe atheroma in the abdominal aorta, the coronary circulation, and the circle of Willis. Pulmonary megakaryocytes probably embolise from bone marrow. This may reflect stimulated thrombopoiesis, caused by increased platelet consumption in association with atherosclerotic disease, but it cannot be taken to confirm that the lung is the principal site of platelet production. copyright.

Review Series Platelets are formed and released into the bloodstream by precursor cells called megakaryocytes that reside within the bone marrow. The production of platelets by megakaryocytes requires an intricate series of remodeling events that result in the release of thousands of platelets from a single megakaryocyte. Abnormalities in this process can result in clinically significant disorders. Thrombocytopenia (platelet counts less than 150,000/μl) can lead to inadequate clot formation and increased risk of bleeding, while thrombocythemia (platelet counts greater than 600,000/μl) can heighten the risk for thrombotic events, including stroke, peripheral ischemia, and myocardial infarction.

The Biochemical and Biophysical Mechanisms of Macrophage Migration Abstract The ability of macrophages to migrate is critical for a proper immune response. During an innate immune response, macrophages migrate to sites of infection or inflammation where they clear pathogens through phagocytosis and activate an adaptive immune response by releasing cytokines and acting as antigen- presenting cells. Unfortunately, improper regulation of macrophage migration is associated with a variety of dieases including cancer, atherosclerosis, wound-healing, and rheumatoid arthritis. In this thesis, engineered substrates were used to study the chemical and physical mechanisms of macrophage migration. We first used microcontact printing to generate surfaces

Distinct forms of emperipolesis Key Points • Neutrophil passage through megakaryocytes, termed emperipolesis, diverges into fast and slow forms that differ in transit time, morphology, and intracellular localization • During emperipolesis, neutrophils can reside in vacuoles (emperisomes) or escape into the cell cytoplasm to assume positions near the megakaryocyte’s demarcation membrane system, endoplasmic reticulum, or nucleus.

These lineages also share the distinction (polychromatic/orthochromatic) at which point the cells of being associated with rare, but aggressive malignancies exit the cell cycle and undergo terminal maturation that have very poor prognoses. In this review, we (Wickrema et al., 1992; Ney and D’Andrea, 2000; will briefly summarize features of normal development of Koury et al., 2002). A disruption of the balance between red blood cells and megakaryocytes and also highlight erythroid cell expansion and differentiation results in events that lead to their leukemic transformation. It is either myeloproliferative disorders (MPDs) such as clear that much more work needs to be done to improve our polycythemia vera, myelodysplastic syndrome, or rarely understanding of the unique biology of these leukemias in erythroleukemia.
