Fig. 23.1 Upper panel: expression of markers in HAE cells and HAM cells. Lane 1: HAE cells, lane 2: pancreatic induced HAE cells, lane 3: HAM cells, lane 4: pancreatic…

Fig. 21.1 CD4+ T-cell differentiation, cytokine production and their implications in EAE and MS. Naïve CD4+ T cells exit the thymus and upon interactions with antigen-presenting cells they differentiate into…

Fig. 20.1 Schematic diagram of immune cells involved in post-stroke inflammation in the brain. Immune cells infiltrate the ischemic hemisphere and are thought to promote cell injury and death via…

Fig. 12.1 Proposed model for AFSC-mediated tissue repair. Implanted undifferentiated AFSCs evoke a strong pro-inflammatory and pro-angiogenic response, which accounts for the rapid vascularization of the implantation site. Circulating progenitors…
