Labdane Diterpenoids from Marrubium globosum ssp. libanoticum

2006

From the aerial parts of Marrubium globosum ssp. libanoticum, seven labdane diterpenoids were isolated. Three of them are new natural products [(13R)-9alpha,13alpha-epoxylabda-6beta(19),16(15)-diol dilactone (2), deacetylvitexilactone (7), marrulanic acid (8)], whereas the other four, namely, (13S)-9alpha,13alpha-epoxylabda-6beta(19),16(15)-diol dilactone (1), cyllenin A (3), 15-epi-cyllenin A (4), and marrulibanoside, are previously known compounds. The structures of 2, 7, and 8 were determined by spectroscopic and chemical methods.

The influence of bone allograft processing on osteoblast attachment and function

2004

In order to assess the influence of eight different sterilisation and disinfection methods for bone allografts on adhesion, proliferation, and differentiation of human bone marrow stromal cells (BMSC), cells were grown in culture and then plated onto pieces of human bone allografts. Following processing methods were tested: autoclavation (AUT), low-temperature-plasma sterilisation of demineralised allografts (D-LTP), ethylene oxide sterilisation (EtO), fresh frozen bone (FFB), 80 degrees C-thermodisinfection (80 degrees C), gamma-irradiation (Gamma), chemical solvent disinfection (CSD), and Barrycidal-disinfection (BAR). The seeding efficiency was determined after one hour to detect the num…

Bone Marrow Derived Mesenchymal Cells Secrete Granulopoietic Cytokines upon Danger Signaling

2014

Abstract Granulopoietic homeostasis is regulated at steady-state to supply sufficient numbers of pooled and circulating neutrophils to maintain barrier function against commensal flora. In addition, upon pathogenic microbial challenge, an increased formation of neutrophils is induced, termed ‘emergency granulopoiesis’. Antibody-mediated reduction of neutrophil numbers in steady-state induces a feedback loop leading to an increase of bone marrow granulopoiesis with expansion of hematopoetic stem and progenitor cells. This feedback loop was demonstrated to depend on TLR4 and TRIF, but not MyD88 signaling (Bugl et al. Blood 2013). In contrast, emergency granulopoiesis was shown to be dependent…

Stromal niche communalities underscore the contribution of the matricellular protein SPARC to B-cell development and lymphoid malignancies

2014

Neoplastic B-cell clones commonly arise within secondary lymphoid organs (SLO). However, during disease progression, lymphomatous cells may also colonize the bone marrow (BM), where they localize within specialized stromal niches, namely the osteoblastic and the vascular niche, according to their germinal center-or extra-follicular-derivation, respectively. We hypothesized the existence of common stromal motifs in BM and SLO B-cell lymphoid niches involved in licensing normal B-cell development as well as in fostering transformed B lymphoid cells. Thus, we tested the expression of prototypical mesenchymal stromal cell (MSC) markers and regulatory matricellular proteins in human BM and SLO u…

REGULATORY ELEMENTS OF THE LEUKAEMIA INHIBITORY FACTOR (LIF) PROMOTER IN MURINE BONE MARROW STROMAL CELLS

1999

Leukaemia inhibitory factor (LIF) plays an important role as a haematopoietically active cytokine. As described earlier in a murine model, interleukin 1 (IL-1) induced LIF mRNA and protein expression. We utilized the murine cell line +/+-1.LDA11 to further define regulatory mechanisms of LIF expression in bone marrow stromal cells. The production of LIF mRNA is stimulated by IL-1beta, TNF-alpha, and the cAMP analogue 8-bromoadenosine 3':5'-monophosphate (8BrcAMP). LIF mRNA expression is controlled at the transcriptional level. Different fragments from -542 to -45 bp 5' upstream of the transcriptional start site of the murine LIF gene were fused to the luciferase gene. All LIF-promoter lucif…

The Influence of Cultivation Conditions on the Proliferation and Differentiation of Rat Bone Marrow Multipotent Mesenchymal Stromal Cells

2008

Rat bone marrow multipotent mesenchymal stromal cells (rBM MMSCs) demonstrate a potential to differentiate down the mesodermal pathway but under appropriate experimental condition differentiation into non-mesodermal lineages may occur. Knowing this fact it seems interesting whether prolonged cultivation and preservation affects BM MMSC morphology, differentiation ability into multiple lineages and proliferation capacity. Therefore this study was aimed to investigate the effects of long-term cultivation and cryopreservation on the morphology, proliferation and differentiation potential of rat bone marrow-derived MMSCs in vitro.

Evidence against a key role for transforming growth factor-beta1 in cytomegalovirus-induced bone marrow aplasia.

1998

During immunodeficiency after sublethal haematoablative treatment, cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection interferes with haematopoietic reconstitution and can cause lethal bone marrow (BM) aplasia. The in vivo model of murine CMV infection has identified the BM stroma as the principal target site of CMV in the haematopoietic cord. The infected cell type is the reticular stromal cell which forms the stromal network and produces essential haemopoietins, such as stem-cell factor (SCF). The expression of SCF was found to be reduced in the infected stroma, but the stromal network was not disrupted and the number of infected stromal cells was too low to explain the functional deficiency. These facts ca…

Interferon-alpha (IFN-alpha) inhibits granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) expression at the post-transcriptional level in murin…

1995

Recently it has been shown that IFN-alpha inhibits expression of GM-CSF in adherent cells of human long-term bone marrow cultures (LTBMC) stimulated with interleukin-1 (IL-1), tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) or endotoxin. The murine bone marrow stromal cell line +/+(-1).LDA11 was used to further define regulatory mechanisms of IFN-alpha inhibition on GM-CSF expression. This cell line originated from a murine Dexter type culture and exhibits a preadipocytic phenotype. As in human LTBMC, we could demonstrate a inhibitory effect of IFN-alpha co-incubation on GM-CSF activity in serum-free supernatants of +/+(-1).LDA11 stromal cell cultures stimulated with IL-1 or TNF-alpha or the combi…
