[Abstract] Transplantation in mouse brain slices is a powerful tool in order to study axon targeting and migrational events during development. Taking advantage of donors and recipients belonging to different genotypes, this technique allows researchers to assess the contribution of donor and/or recipient tissue by performing various combinations and to study cell-autonomous functions or effects that are influenced by the recipient’s environment (Bastakis, et al., 2015). Here we describe the transplantation procedure on sagittal brain slices containing olfactory bulb (OB). Specifically, we have ...
[摘要] 小鼠脑切片中的移植是一个强大的工具，以便研究轴突靶向和发展过程中的迁移事件。 利用属于不同基因型的供体和受体，该技术允许研究人员通过进行各种组合来评估供体和/或受体组织的贡献，并研究受受体环境影响的细胞自主功能或效应（Bastakis， em>等人，2015）。 在这里我们描述的矢状大脑切片包含嗅球（OB）的移植程序。 具体来说，我们已经将背侧OB的近端到外皮部分移植到受体切片上的相同区域。 移植的切片可以培养长达3天，之后由于3D中的生长它们的形态被破坏。 这些切片的重新切片允许更详细的免疫组织化学分析。

[Abstract] Cell-cell adhesion ensures tight contacts between neighbouring cells, which is necessary for cell segregation, as well as for the morphological and functional differentiation of different tissues. Evidently there are cell-cell recognition systems that make cells of the same type preferentially adherent to one another. Homotypic cell adhesion is particularly important in mediating a range of physiological processes such as cell survival, migration and remodeling of vessels. Thus in the present study we selected two populations of endothelial progenitor cells which are from the same donor to ...
[摘要] 细胞粘附保证了相邻细胞之间的紧密接触，这对于细胞分离以及不同组织的形态和功能分化是必要的。显然，存在使相同类型的细胞优先彼此粘附的细胞 - 细胞识别系统。同型细胞粘附在介导一系列生理过程例如细胞存活，迁移和血管重塑中特别重要。因此，在本研究中，我们选择两个来自相同供体的内皮祖细胞群体，以研究小分子化合物Icariin对同型细胞粘附的可能影响。许多血管生成因子可以破坏细胞间连接的组织，导致内皮屏障开放。在本研究中，我们观察到Icariin治疗减少EPC中VE-钙粘蛋白表达的水平，表明细胞 - 细胞粘附减少 - 证明Icariin的促血管生成作用。总之，所观察到的EPCs的同型粘附的丧失可能有助于由Icariin施加的增强的血管生成作用。

[Abstract] To assess the capacity of multipotent stromal cells (MSC) to induce the generation of Tregs, transwell co-cultures were performed as well as cultures with MSC-conditioned medium (CM). In short, peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) were co-cultured with allogeneic MSC or CM for one week followed by one week of culture in the absence of MSC.
[摘要] 为了评估多潜能基质细胞（MSC）诱导Treg产生的能力，进行Transwell共培养以及具有MSC条件培养基（CM）的培养。 简而言之，将外周血单核细胞（PBMC）与同种异体MSC或CM共培养一周，然后在不存在MSC的情况下培养一周。
