Although autologous induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) can potentially be useful for treating patients without immune rejection, in reality it will be extremely expensive and labor-intensive to make iPSCs to realize personalized medicine. An alternative approach is to make use

Natural killer (NK) cells are a critical component of the innate immune system. However, their ontogenic origin has remained unclear. Here, we report that NK cell potential first arises from Hoxaneg/low Kit+CD41+CD16/32+ hematopoietic-stem-cell (HSC)-independent erythro-myeloid progenitors (EMPs) present in the

Thiol-modified surfaces are chemically well defined and suited for surface biological model experiments and biomaterials research. 3-Mercapto-1,2-propanediol (mercaptoglycerol, MG), immobilized on gold, spontaneously binds immunoglobulins from human serum and activates the complement system. The surface-bound complement factors were detected by
