Published OnlineFirst June 19, 2015; DOI: 10.1158/2159-8290.CD-15-0298 abstRact Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is characterized by a high relapse rate that has been attributed to the quiescence of leukemia stem cells (LSC), which renders them resistant to chemotherapy. However, this hypothesis is largely supported by indirect evidence and fails to explain the large differences in relapse rates across AML subtypes. To address this, bone mar- row aspirates from 41 AML patients and five healthy donors were analyzed by high-dimensional mass cytometry. All patients displayed immunophenotypic and intracellular signaling abnormalities within CD34+CD38lo populations, and several karyotype- and genotype-specific surface marker patterns were identified. The immunophenotypic stem and early progenitor cell populations from patients with clinically favorable core-binding factor AML demonstrated a 5-fold higher fraction of cells in S-phase compared with other AML samples. Conversely, LSCs in less clinically favorable FLT3-ITD AML exhib- ited dramatic reductions in S-phase fraction. Mass cytometry also allowed direct observation of the in vivo effects of cytotoxic chemotherapy. SIGNIFICANCE: The mechanisms underlying differences in relapse rates across AML subtypes are poorly understood.

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.

  • Effects of Heterologous Antineutrophil Serum in Guinea Pigs Hematologic and Ultrastructural Observations
    Effects of Heterologous Antineutrophil Serum in Guinea Pigs Hematologic and Ultrastructural Observations David M. Simpson and Russell Ross Two pools of rabbit anti-guinea pig neutrophil serum (ANS) were prepared using an intravenous (ANS I) or subcutaneous (ANS II) route of immunization with proteose peptone-stimulated peritoneal exudate neutrophils (PMNs) from albino guinea pigs. In vitro, both pools of ANS contained high titers of agglutinating antibodies to neutrophils and lower titers against lymphocytes and red cells. Ag- glutinins against all three cell types could be selectively removed by absorption. The in vivo hematologic effects of both the absorbed and unabsorbed antisera were examined after intraperitoneal administration, and the effects of ANS on neu- trophils in blood, bone marrow, and peritoneal cavity were examined by light and electr microscopy of spleen, liver, lung, lymph node, buffy coat, bone mar- row and pellets of peritoneal cells removed at various time intervals within 24 hours. Injection of either antisera caused a rapid decrase in circulating neu- trophils and lymphocytes, whi reached thefr lowest levels within 12 hours. Neutrophils that disappeared from the circulation were sequestered primarily in liver and spleen where they were phagocytized, as morphologically intact cells, by macrophages and then rapidly digested. Immature bone marow neutrophils as young as early myelocytes were ingested by macrophages in the marrow at 6 hours or later after ANS. Neutrophils that were phagocytized were apparently opsonized by ANS since there was no ultrastructurl evidence of neutrophil lysis in blood or bone manrow after ANS treatment. However, both lysed and ingested neubrophils were observed in the peritoneal cavity.

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

Abstract Glycosylation is an essential biological process that adds structural and functional diversity to cells and molecules, participating in physiological processes such as immunity. The immune response is driven and modulated by protein-attached glycans that mediate cell-cell interactions, pathogen recognition and cell activation. Therefore, abnormal glycosylation can be associated with deranged immune responses. Within human diseases presenting immunological defects are Congenital Disorders of Glycosylation (CDG), a family of around 130 rare and complex genetic diseases. In this review, we have identified 23 CDG with immunological involvement, characterised by an increased propensity to – often life-threatening – infection.
