White blood cells, WBCs for short, are an essential component of the human immune system. These cells are our body's first line of defense against infe
Figure 1 RBC acquisition of cytokines from cancer cells. Summary of cytokines in the lysates of naïve RBCs before incubation, oRBCs and ccRBCs after incubation (3 days, cultured at a ratio of 1:100 A549:RBCs cell number), and conditioned media from A549 cells cultured alone (A549 CM) ...
Figure 1 Derivation and maintenance of spheres. A, Growth kinetics of USSCs cultured in stem cell proliferation medium, HEScGRO and PSM and USSC growth mediumACF. Cells were seeded at low density and total cell number was determined every two days. B, Time course of the formation of sphere...
The white blood cell/platelet fraction we analysed for the correction was comprised of both white blood cells and platelets at a ratio of 1:19 and was analysed in its entirety. Thus it is not known what level of cytokines came from either white blood cells or platelets alone. To correct f...
Figure 1. Each side of a two-sided hemocytometer is etched with nine major (1 mm) squares, and each square corresponds to a 0.1 μl volume. For most cell lines, count in the corner squares, but smaller cells such as red blood cells may be counted in the center square using a higher...
Figure 1. Linear regression fit of the correlation between cell density and MCHC in normal human RBCs. The points represent data from Table 1, column 2 plotted against column 3. The regression coefficient was r2 = 0.996. The following equation reports the parameters of the fit and can be app...
Figure 13-2. Classic and Spatial Model of Hematopoietic Cell Differentiation, Canine Blood Smears, and Bone Marrow Aspirate. The bone marrow consists of (1) hematopoietic stem cells, pluripotent cells capable of self-renewal; (2) progenitor cells that evolve into more differentiated cells with each...
Figure 1 Thermal fluctuations of an actin filament. The filament is 11.5 μm long and the sequential dark-field micrographs were taken at 1/12-s intervals. From Nagashima and Asakura52 Full size image Cellular and Molecular Biomechanics Application of single-molecule techniques has provided quite...
There were then too few CD8+ Vδ2+ T-cells for an analysis of the memory phenotypes at all, but the CD8+ Vδ1+ compartment (Additional file 1: Figure S5 A and Table S2) revealed similar differentiation patterns compared to the total Vδ1+ γδ T-cells (Fig. 4 compared to ...
Figure 1 Extinction cross sections of sphered RBCs, washed three times and suspended in sphering reagent. Samples from six volunteers A–F who exhibit significantly different MCV were investigated. The curves shown are rescaled according to the optimisation results to eliminate the effect of particle...
