Abstract Abstract 810FN2 Increasing evidence shows that a small fraction of MM patients (pts) treated with high-dose therapy followed by autologous stem cell transplantation achieve long-term remission. Interestingly, this is not restricted to pts in complete response (CR), since those that revert to a monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS) profile may also achieve long-term remission, despite the persistence of residual myeloma plasma cells (PCs). These results suggest that in addition to the anti-myeloma therapy, other factors may play a role in the control of the disease.

Due to the rarity of these cells in the intestine, their development and differentiation remain yet to be fully understood.

Bone marrow stromal cells influence hematopoiesis through cell-cell interaction and release of hematopoietic growth factors. Macrophage colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF) is constitutively produced by several murine and human stromal cell lines and is induced by inflammatory mediators such as interleukin-1 alpha or tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) in a variety of mesenchymal cells. Other potentially important regulatory molecules such as platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) and basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF), released by activated monocytes in response to inflammation, stimulate

e21057 Background: We have previously shown that chronic exposure of A549 NSCLC cell line to TGF-β1 can induce epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and can make these cell lines (A549-M) resistant to erlotinib, an EGFR inhibitor and cisplatin. EMT in A549-M cells was associated with significant activation of signaling through the Hh pathway. We therefore evaluated the activity of GDC-0449, an inhibitor of the Hh pathway, and assessed its activity in combination with erlotinib and cisplatin in A549-M cells both in vitro and in vivo. Methods: We assessed the effects of GDC-0449 (20 nM) on clo

Cadherins are a gene family encoding calcium-dependent cell adhesion proteins which are thought to act in the establishment and maintenance of tissue organization.

These findings have suggested that M-cadherin is involved in the regulation of morphogenesis of skeletal muscle cells. Therefore, we investigated the function of M-cadherin in the fusion of myoblasts into myotubes (terminal differentiation) in cell culture. Furthermore, we tested whether M-cadherin might in

This subclone no longer expressed CD105, CD90 and CD44, cell surface markers typically found on bone marrow stromal cells. Instead they expressed alpha7-integrin, an antigen found on myoblasts and regenerating muscles. WB15-M cells were positive for the myogenic regu

Abstract Background Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), the causative agent of tuberculosis (TB), is a bacterial pathogen that infects roughly one-third of the worldÕs population and causes 1–2 million deaths per year. The current paradigm is that phagocytosis of Mtb by patrolling alveolar macrophages initiates Mtb infection. While this model can account for pulmonary TB, it does not adequately explain the occurrence of extrapulmonary forms of TB that manifest in the absence of obvious lung involvement, such as tuberculous cervical lymphadenitis, also known as scrofula.
