Characterization of embryonic stem cell transplantation immunobiology using molecular imaging Swijnenburg, R.J.

Bioluminescence imaging during the first three weeks following transplantation reveals acute donor cell death followed by stable survival of hESC-derived cardiac cells.. In contrast,

When transplanted into a naive recipient after 2 weeks of in vivo maturation, ESCs triggered an accelerated infiltration of immune cells, indicating that the immune response

(a) Representative BLI images of animals following intramuscular allotransplantation of mESCs show an accelerated decrease in BLI signal in animals that were pre-sensitized with

Specifically, we have demonstrated that: (1) molecular imaging can be used to quantify hESC survival and non-invasively follow donor cell fate; (2) hESCs can trigger potent

Specifically, this thesis presents evidence that: (1) molecular imaging can be used to quantify organ, BMC and ESC survival following transplantation and non-invasively follow

gebruik gemaakt van molecular imaging om de getransplanteerde ESC in beeld te brengen en overleving van de cellen non-invasief te kunnen volgen.. IN VIVO BIOLUMINESCENT IMAGING:

Stimulation of Paracrine Pathways with Growth Factors Enhances Embryonic Stem cell Engraftment and Host Specific Differentiation in the Heart Following Ischemic Myocardial

Peripheral blood cells were stained with HLA-A2.1 tetramers containing the tyrosinase368–376 peptide followed by staining with a panel of lineage antibodies, as described in
