AC133+ umbilical cord blood progenitors demonstrate rapid self-renewal and low apoptosisNicolas Forraz
King-George Laboratory, St George's Hospital Medical School and Kingston University, London, UK
Br J Haematol 119:516-24. 2002..50 +/- 2.36; TPOFL: 47.00 +/- 7.69; P < 0.05). In conclusion, TPOFL synergism demonstrated the potential for AC133+ HSPC ex vivo expansion inducing self-renewal, early HSPC maintenance and promoting cell survival status...
Characterization of a lineage-negative stem-progenitor cell population optimized for ex vivo expansion and enriched for LTC-ICNicolas Forraz
King-George Laboratory, St. George's Hospital Medical School and Kingston University, London, UK
Stem Cells 22:100-8. 2004..Additionally, this work provides an optimized and well-characterized cell population for expansion of UCB for a wider therapeutic potential, including adult stem cell transplantation...
Diaminofluorene stain detects erythroid differentiation in immature haemopoietic cells treated with EPO, IL-3, SCF, TGFbeta1, MIP-1alpha and IFNgammaColin P McGuckin
King George Laboratory, St George s Hospital Medical School, London, UK
Eur J Haematol 70:106-14. 2003..This differential cytokine stimulation analysis combined with sensitive DAF haemoglobin detection could be applied in the study of many erythropoiesis-deficient patients or primitive erythropoiesis...

Multiparametric analysis of immature cell populations in umbilical cord blood and bone marrowColin P McGuckin
King George Laboratory, St George s Hospital Medical School and Kingston University, London, UK
Eur J Haematol 71:341-50. 2003..The presence of cells which lacked extracellular CD34 antigen, in both CB and BM, but which possessed CD133, has important implications for purification of human stem cells in clinical applications...
Thrombopoietin, flt3-ligand and c-kit-ligand modulate HOX gene expression in expanding cord blood CD133 cellsC P McGuckin
King George Stem Cell Therapy Laboratory, St George s Hospital Medical School and Kingston University, London, UK
Cell Prolif 37:295-306. 2004..These results suggest that TPOFLK induces CD133+ HSPC proliferation, self-renewal and maintenance, up-regulation of HOX B3, B4 and A9 and down-regulation of HOX B8 and A10 gene expression...
Umbilical cord blood stem cells can expand hematopoietic and neuroglial progenitors in vitroColin P McGuckin
King George Laboratory, St George s Hospital Medical School and Kingston University, London, UK
Exp Cell Res 295:350-9. 2004..Our study supports that a single CB specimen can be pre-expanded in TPOFLK to produce both primitive hematopoietic and neuropoietic progenitors, hence widening CB clinical potential for cellular therapies...
Endolyn (CD164) modulates the CXCL12-mediated migration of umbilical cord blood CD133+ cellsSinead Forde
Stem Cell Laboratory, National Blood Service and Transplant Authority, United Kindom
Blood 109:1825-33. 2007..We propose that this lends specificity to the homing and lodgment of these cells within the bone marrow niche...
Three-dimensional analysis of CD34 sialomucin distribution on cord blood and bone marrowKaren A Whiting
King-George Laboratory, St George's Hospital Medical School and Kingston University, London, UK
Br J Haematol 122:771-7. 2003..True CD34 distribution, not previously discernible by confocal laser scanning microscopy alone, suggests a possible role in cell adhesion/homing revealed by three-dimensional imaging...
Haemopoietic and neuroglial progenitors are promoted during cord blood ex vivo expansionNicolas Forraz
King-George Laboratory, Haematology, St George's Hospital Medical School and Kingston University, School of Life Sciences, London, UK
Br J Haematol 119:888. 2002
Umbilical cord blood stem cells--an ethical source for regenerative medicineColin P McGuckin
Newcastle Centre for Cord Blood, Stem Cell Institute, Institute of Human Genetics, Newcastle University
Med Law 27:147-65. 2008..With ongoing clinical trials and research predicting new avenues, the future seems assured for this stem cell source. What does this predict, however, for cord blood banking? More importantly, what does it justify?..
