In this report, we identify in the bone marrow (BM) of normal mice a subpopulation of B220+ CD117+ CD19- NK1.1- cells with potent lymphoid and myeloid developmental potential. These cells represent 0.1-0.2% of nucleated BM cells. By limiting dilution analysis in the presence of the appropriate combination of stromal cells and cytokines, 1 in 5-10 sorted cells formed B cells, 1 in 10-15 formed T cells and 1 in 5-10 generated macrophages. When cultured on a mixture of OP9 stroma and OP9 stromal cells expressing the Notch ligand Delta-like-1, single cells generated both T and B cells. Following intravenous infusion, freshly sorted cells transiently reconstituted both the T and B cell progenitor compartments, generating cohorts of mature T and B lymphocytes. The relationship between B220+ CD117+ CD19- NK1.1- cells of wild-type mice and other multi-lineage BM progenitors is discussed.

Evaluation of Innate Lymphoid Cells (ILCs) Population in the Mouse Model of Colorectal Cancer.

Background: Innate Lymphoid Cells (ILCs) promote tissue homeostasis, contribute to the immune defense mechanisms, and play important roles in the initiation of immune responses and chronic inflammation.
Objective: To understand the roles of innate lymphoid cells in the pathophysiology of colorectal cancer (CRC) in the mouse model.
Methods: CRC was induced using azoxymethane (AOM) and dextran sulfate sodium (DSS) in Balb/c mice (the chemically induced group=18 mice), or orthotopic injection of CT-26 cell line into the colon of another set of Balb/c mice (the orthotopic group=14mice).
A truncated derivative of FGFR1 kinase cooperates with FLT3 and KIT to transform hematopoietic stem cells in syndromic and de novo AML.

Background: Myeloid and lymphoid malignancies associated with chimeric FGFR1 kinases are the hallmark of stem cell leukemia and lymphoma syndrome (SCLL). In all cases, FGFR1 kinase is constitutively phosphoactivated as a result of chromosome translocations, which lead to acquisition of dimerization motifs in the chimeric proteins. Recently, we demonstrated that these chimeric kinases could be cleaved by granzyme B to generate a truncated derivative, tnFGFR1, which localized exclusively into the nucleus and was not phosphorylated.

Aim: Cell therapies are hampered by poor survival and growth of grafts. We tested whether forced co-expression of telomerase reverse transcriptase (TERT) and myocardin (MYOCD) improves post-infarct revascularization and tissue repair by adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stromal cells (AT-MSCs).
Methods And Results: We transplanted AT-MSCs overexpressing MYOCD and TERT in a murine model of acute myocardial infarction (AMI).
After Experimental Infection, Dying Hepatic CD3TCRαβB220 T Lymphocytes Are Rescued from Death by Peripheral T Cells and Become Activated.

The unusual phenotype of CD3 T lymphocyte expressing B220, a marker originally attributed to B lymphocytes, was first observed in the liver of Fas/Fas-L-deficient mice as a marker of apoptotic T lymphocytes. However, other CD3B220 T lymphocyte populations were later described in the periphery as functional cytotoxic or regulatory cells, for example. Then, in this work, we studied whether hepatic CD3B220 T lymphocytes could play a role in experimental infection.

In humans and in mouse models, precursor B-cell lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL)/lymphoblastic lymphoma (B-LBL) can be classified as either the pro-B or pre-B subtype. This is based on the expression of antigens associated with the pro-B and pre-B stages of B-cell development. Antigenic markers can be detected by flow cytometry or immunohistochemistry (IHC), but no comparison of results from these techniques has been reported for murine B-ALL/LBL.
