To evaluate disease activity in the different groups, we extended our analysis beyond the conventional phenotype and morphology markers and employed small animal MRI technology.
The three cell types exhibited morphologies, marker protein expression profiles, and migration behaviors characteristic of RGs, IPCs, and neurons observed in vivo [11], [18], [20], [28], [29], [30].
After 3, 14 and 28 days samples were investigated for cell count and morphology, biochemical markers and ratio of Ca and P as a hint for the type of calciumphosphate.
We here demonstrated that expanded DCs showed similar characteristics, in views of morphology, surface markers, and biological functions, to those seen in conventional DCs.
Microglial cells can be activated to different stages according to morphology, expressed markers and secreted products (Perry et al., 2007).
In conclusion, this study establishes an optimized method for the isolation and culture of chicken EPCs as suggested by characterization of cell morphology, surface markers and biological features.
Detailed integrative studies of those deep mitochondrial splits including morphology, nuclear markers and ecology may reveal a complex of cryptic diversity (Dinça et al. 2011).
In conclusion, an optimal method for isolation and culture of DMS/PCs was established in this study and cell morphology, surface markers, and biological characteristics were observed and detected.
Clonogenic assays, morphology, markers of autophagy and apoptosis were used to assess the involved death mechanisms.
(A ) Schematic drawing of a single isolated neuron grown on a micro island of astrocytes and expressing fluorescently tagged morphology marker (green) and a synapse marker (red) in addition to either NPY-pHluorin or NPY-mCherry (not shown).
