Interaction of Lymphocytes with Mesenchymal Stem Cells

Аннотация

We studied the interaction of neural stem cells and dental pulp-derived mesenchymal stem cells with lymphocytes from autologous and heterologous donors. Flow cytometry analysis with the use of CFSE-labeled lymphocytes demonstrated an increase in the content of proliferating CD8, CD16 and CD56 cells, but not CD4 cells in cultures of HLA-DR-negative mesenchymal stromal cells from the dental pulp co-cultured with lymphocytes. In neural cultures expressing HLA-DR, all subpopulations of T cells and NK cells were activated. No differences between the autologous and heterologous cultures were revealed.
