In allogenic transplant the immediate immune response is due to the recipient T cell recognition of non-self molecules presented on graft resident donor antigen presenting cells. An alternative to the transplantation tolerance paradigm is based on the development of strategies which distort alloimmune recognition of the graft by antigen reactive cells of the recipient. Immunocamouflage relies on the modification of the cell membrane surface with non-immunogenic molecules creating a barrier that prevents the recognition of antigenic sites by cells and antibodies of the recipient. Polymers can spontaneously bind to cell and tissues surfaces and sterically stabilize the underlying surface from interactions with other components in the surrounding. They can be adsorbed or chemically grafted to surfaces. Polyethylene glycol (PEG) seems to be the more effective at sterically stabilizing underlying surfaces. The outstanding protection provided by this polymer has been attributed to its molecular properties, such as its low interfacial energy, its conformation, hydrophilicity and high flexibility. The main advantage of immunocamouflage, is that it directly modify the inherent immunogenicity of the donor tissue itself, using means that are strictly physicochemical in nature and do not rely on the details of activation pathways, leaving fully competent, the immune system of the recipient. 相似文献

Transplantation has a long history in Iran. Cornea was the first tissue transplantation in 1935. The Central Eye Bank of Iran
was established in 1991 and the Iranian Tissue Bank (ITB) in 1994. Now, there are also some private cell and tissue banks
in the country, that produce different tissue grafts such as homograft heart valves, musculoskeletal tissues, soft tissues,
cartilages, pericardium, amniotic membrane and some cell based products. There is not a separate legislation for tissue transplantation
but the legal framework for tissue donation is based on the “Deceased or Brain dead patient organ transplantation” act (passed on April 6, 2000). For tissue banking there is no regulatory oversight by the national health authority. To
increase the level of safety and considering the importance of effective traceability, each tissue bank has its own policy
and terminology for coding and documentation without any correlation to others. In some cases tissue banks have implemented
ISO based standards (i.e., ISO 9001) as a basic quality management system. 相似文献

The study of mechanisms by which animals tolerate environmental extremes may provide strategies for preservation of living mammalian materials. Animals employ a variety of compounds to enhance their survival, including production of disaccharides, glycerol, and antifreeze compounds. The cryoprotectant glycerol was discovered before its role in amphibian survival. In the last decade, trehalose has made an impact on freezing and drying methods for mammalian cells. Investigation of disaccharides was stimulated by the variety of organisms that tolerate dehydration stress by accumulation of disaccharides. Several methods have been developed for the loading of trehalose into mammalian cells, including inducing membrane lipid-phase transitions, genetically engineered pores, endocytosis, and prolonged cell culture with trehalose. In contrast, the many antifreeze proteins (AFPs) identified in a variety of organisms have had little impact. The first AFPs to be discovered were found in cold water fish; their AFPs have not found a medical application. Insect AFPs function by similar mechanisms, but they are more active and recombinant AFPs may offer the best opportunity for success in medical applications. For example, in contrast to fish AFPs, transgenic organisms expressing insect AFPs exhibit reduced ice nucleation. However, we must remember that nature's survival strategies may include production of AFPs, antifreeze glycolipids, ice nucleators, polyols, disaccharides, depletion of ice nucleators, and partial desiccation in synchrony with the onset of winter. We anticipate that it is only by combining several natural low temperature survival strategies that the full potential benefits for mammalian cell survival and medical applications can be achieved. 相似文献

Cells can sense changes in their mechanical environment and promote alterations and adaptations in tissue structure and function. Mechanical stimuli regulate such fundamental processes as cell division and differentiation and determine tissue form. The current editorial outlines the general scope of a subject area we have called 'mechanical morphogenesis'. We are promoting it as an area of special interest for future issues of the European Journal of Morphology. Clearly, mechanical loading is of pivotal importance to the development, function and repair of all tissues in the musculoskeletal system, including bone, ligament, tendon, skeletal muscle, intervertebral disc and meniscus. Bone in particular has attracted special interest and mechanical strain is central to both Wolff 's law and Frost's 'mechanostat' model of bone behaviour. But it is skeletal muscle that shows the most obvious and rapid response to altered load, with striated muscle fibres hypertrophing with strength-training programmes, and atrophing in the absence of adequate mechanical stimulation. Articular cartilage, together with tendons and ligaments is also responsive to changing exercise levels, and either abnormally high or low loads are detrimental. However, the influence of mechanical forces extends to many other organ systems, including the respiratory, cardiovascular, nervous and integumentary systems. The bronchial mucosa and the alveoli are subject to tensile and compressive loading during the volume changes that occur in respiration, and surface tension is also of paramount importance. The whole form of the cardiovascular system is driven by the haemodynamic influences of blood, and atherosclerosis has an underlying mechanical basis. The characteristic plaques tend to occur at sites of obvious mechanical significance - regions of arterial branching and curvature, where shear stress on the vessel wall may be low, but tensile stress high. Sensory perception by the nervous system has a well known mechanical basis and the cochlea is perhaps the most elaborate example of a site where sensory cells transduce mechanical forces and relay information to the brain. Mechanical force has also been proposed as a regulating factor in controlling axonal growth. Finally, the integumentary system has several structural adaptations that obviously relate to the influence of mechanical forces. The thickened layer of keratinised squames in the palms and soles is directly related to the high levels of shear at these locations. 相似文献

Epithelial cells play an important role in physiological and pathophysiological situations, with organ-, tissue-, type-, and function-specific patterns. Proteome analysis has been used to study epithelial-origin diseases and identify novel prognostic, diagnostic, and therapeutic markers. The present review compares the variation of sample preparation for epithelial proteomic analysis, search similarities, and differences of epithelial proteomics between different cells, locations, and diseases. We focus on specificity of proteomic markers for epithelial-involved diseases. Proteomic alterations in epithelial cell lines were mapped to understand protein patterns, differentiation, oncogenesis, and pathogenesis of epithelial-origin diseases. Changes of proteomic patterns depend on different epithelial cell lines, challenges, and preparation. Epithelial protein profiles associated with intracellular locations and protein function. Epithelial proteomics has been greatly developed to link clinical questions, e.g., disease severity, biomarkers for disease diagnosis, and drug targets. There is an exciting and attractive start to link epithelial proteomics with histology of clinical samples. From the present review, we can find that most of disease-associated investigation of epithelial proteomics has been focused on epithelial-origin cancer. There is a significant gap of epithelial proteomics between acute and chronic organ injury, inflammation, and multiple organ dysfunction. Epithelial proteomics will provide powerful information on the relationships between biological molecules and disease mechanisms. Epithelial proteomics strategies and approaches should become more global, multidimensional, and systemic. 相似文献

The US lags behind other developed countries in creating a system to monitor disease transmission and other complications
from human allograft use, despite a pressing need. The risks of transmission are amplified in transplantation, since at least
8 organs and more than 100 tissues can be recovered from a single common organ and tissue donor. Moreover, since many allografts
collected in the US are distributed internationally, tissue safety is a global concern. In June 2005, participants of a US
government-sponsored workshop concluded that a communication network for the tracking and reporting of disease transmissions
for tissues and organs was critically needed. The United Network for Organ Sharing (UNOS) entered into a cooperative agreement
with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in 2006 to develop a system prototype. Over the following 3 years,
the Transplantation Transmission Sentinel Network (TTSN) was developed and piloted with the participation of organ procurement
organizations, tissue banks and transplant centers. The prototype centered around three elements of data entry: (1) donation,
(2) tissue implantation, and (3) adverse event. The pilot proved that a system can be built and operated successfully, but
also suggested that users may be hesitant to report adverse events. CDC has requested further input on scope and cost to build
a transplant surveillance infrastructure for a fully functional national system. For tissues however, in contrast to organs,
tracking from recovery to implantation will be necessary before a system is operable, requiring common identifiers and nomenclature.
Until a US sentinel network is operational, future transmission events that are preventable may result nationally and globally
due to its absence. 相似文献

Defining the protein profiles of tissues and organs is critical to understanding the unique characteristics of the various cell types in the human body. In this study, we report on an anatomically comprehensive analysis of 4842 protein profiles in 48 human tissues and 45 human cell lines. A detailed analysis of over 2 million manually annotated, high‐resolution, immunohistochemistry‐based images showed a high fraction (>65%) of expressed proteins in most cells and tissues, with very few proteins (<2%) detected in any single cell type. Similarly, confocal microscopy in three human cell lines detected expression of more than 70% of the analyzed proteins. Despite this ubiquitous expression, hierarchical clustering analysis, based on global protein expression patterns, shows that the analyzed cells can be still subdivided into groups according to the current concepts of histology and cellular differentiation. This study suggests that tissue specificity is achieved by precise regulation of protein levels in space and time, and that different tissues in the body acquire their unique characteristics by controlling not which proteins are expressed but how much of each is produced. 相似文献

The modern era of cryomedicine began in 1949 in London and developed world-wide in the second half of the 20th century based on the first report of a novel method of cryopreservation of sperm and erythrocytes using glycerol that was reported in 1949 and 1950 by Polge and Smith. In 1951 at Hradec Kralove, Czech. Klen initiated a "tissue bank" using his unique freeze-drying system. In 1964, the initial meeting of the Society for Cryobiology was organized by its first president. B. J. Luyet in Washington, DC. Cryobiology including cryopreservation and cryosurgery, contributed immense advances for clinical medicine. Cryomedicine will realize the goals of the New Millennium medicine: regeneration, plasticity, and minimally invasive therapy. I explained the first one, regeneration in this paper in detail.Cryomedicine involved subzero-temperatures to freeze the biological objects either for preservation or for destruction. Cryopreservation involves the cooling of the target biological materials to below the temperature of solidification by consumption of energy, through continuously supplying inert cryogens to attain the necessary cryo-temperatures by Joule-Thompson's effect. Therefore biological materials for cryopreservation should be carefully selected and once frozen purposefully kept in the frozen state to be used later to regenerate human cells, tissues and organs, and also to relaize "plasticity". Recently, lyophilization of human cells and tissues came back to the main street of cryopreservation to provide low cost economical and ecological banking of cells and tissues as a hope of the New Millennium. The first attempt of that was made by Prof. Dr. Rudolf Klen and his colleagues.Finally, physicians and related scientists who are going to be interested in cryomedicine should not worry about "freezing and thawing" as being time consuming and labor intensive, otherwise they will not share in the crucial benefits of cryomedicine. 相似文献

Broad immunocytochemical localization of the formylpeptide receptor in human organs, tissues, and cells 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

The formylpeptide receptor (FPR), previously found only on polymorphonuclear leukocytes and monocytes/macrophages, responds to both synthetic N-formyl oligopeptides and those produced by bacteria. The cDNA for human FPR has been cloned and a rabbit polyclonal antiserum directed against a synthetic 11-amino-acid peptide corresponding to the deduced carboxy-terminus has been produced. We have now extensively characterized and used the antibody to detect FPR on normal human tissues and cell types. The receptor antigen is present on some epithelial cells, especially those with a secretory function, and on some endocrine cells, e.g., follicular cells of the thyroid and cortical cells of the adrenal. Liver hepatocytes and Kupffer cells are positive. Smooth muscle and endothelial cells are also generally positive. In the brain and spinal cord, the neurons of the motor, sensory, and cerebellar systems, and those of the parasympathetic and sympathetic systems stain positively. These data suggest that the putative endogenous agonist for FPR or an antigenically similar receptor reacts with cellular targets in the neuromuscular, vascular, endocrine, and immune systems. 相似文献
