Journal ArticleDOI

Transcription factors, normal myeloid development, and leukemia.

TL;DR: In the hematopoietic system, stem cells undergo a process of commitment to multipotential progenitors, which in turn give rise to mature blood cells.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cutting edge: IL-17F, a novel cytokine selectively expressed in activated T cells and monocytes, regulates angiogenesis and endothelial cell cytokine production.

TL;DR: Recombinant human IL-17F did not stimulate the proliferation of hematopoietic progenitors or the migration of mature leukocytes, however, it markedly inhibited the angiogenesis of human endothelial cells and induced endotocyte cells to produce IL-2, TGF-β, and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cutting edge: IL-17D, a novel member of the IL-17 family, stimulates cytokine production and inhibits hemopoiesis.

TL;DR: A novel cytokine termed IL-17D was cloned using nested RACE PCR and demonstrated an inhibitory effect on hemopoiesis of myeloid progenitor cells in colony formation assays.
Journal ArticleDOI

Efficient retrovirus-mediated transfer of the multidrug resistance 1 gene into autologous human long-term repopulating hematopoietic stem cells.

TL;DR: Pre-clinical studies indicate that efficient retrovirus-mediated gene transfer into hematopoietic stem cells and progenitor cells can be achieved by co-localizing retroviral particles and target cells on specific adhesion domains of fibronectin.
