Another critical aspect of applying encapsulation to sorting cytokine-secreting cells is the ability to recover the cells in a viable and functionally normal state. Thus, PBMC were encapsulated ...

Cytokines are small proteins released by many different cells in the body ... as their immune systems are less developed and so produce lower levels of inflammation-driving cytokines.

Although GMP-grade cytokines do not need approval from the United States Food and Drug Administration, during production, strict compliance with GMP is mandatory. For cell therapy research and ...

A new paper by a team of Concordia researchers from the departments of Biology and Physics proposes a novel method of ...

Increased production and/or activity of cytokines may be critical for both autocrine and paracrine perpetuation of stellate cell activation. Direct effects on stellate cell matrix production and ...

Researchers have designed process that uses ultrasound to modify the behavior of cancer-fighting T cells by increasing their cell permeability. They targeted freshly isolated human immune cells with ...

A recent study by researchers at Institute of Science Tokyo reveals the pivotal role of tristetraprolin (TTP), an RNA-binding ...

The mechanism of action of CIs is blocking the intracellular T cell signals responsible for the production of cytokines (Figures 4 and 5). While CsA and TAC depend on different intracellular ...
