In the UCB there are some ESC-like cells expressing the typical markers Oct-4, Nanog and SSEA-4. Me managed to analyse them by flow cytometry and to increase their numbers by immunomagnetic sorting. With the cell sorter we finally isolated a population expressing CD133, but lacking CD45 and other markers of lineage differentiation. Additional tests need to be performed in order to explore the possible use of these cells in regenerative medicine.

COBISS.SI-ID: 28256217It is known that MSCs travel toward malignant glyoblastoma cells based on their tumor chemokines. MSCs probably act via the cystein cathepsins B and L. Some clones of MSCs reduce the invasion over the impact on cathepsin B, whereas the malignant glioblastoma cell are likely to increase invasion over the impact on cathepsin B.

COBISS.SI-ID: 6394489Mixed research groupf from Germany and Slovenia is introducing new methods of system biology based on proteomics, transcriptomics and metabolomics with microchip based technology and corresponding staistical analysis of mass data. The purpose among other is to determine new markers of cancer and assistance in cellular therapy of cancer.
