Angiogenesis
New angiogenesis data have been reported by researchers at University of Tubingen
January 27th, 2009
"Human peripheral gamma delta-T-cells are able to induce cytolysis of neuroblastoma (Nb) tumor cells. Besides innate effector functions against infected cells and tumors, gamma delta-T-cells are involved in T-helper 1/T-helper 2 (T(H)1/T(H)2) differentiation of alpha beta-T-cells," scientists writing in the Journal of Immunotherapy report. "However, as different gamma delta-T-cell subsets vary considerably in their functional properties, the aim of the present study was to define repertoires of cytokines, chemokines, and angiogenic factors of in vitro expanded V delta 1(+) and V delta 2(+) T cells in response to Nb. After short-term culture, both subsets released...
