MacroCargo™ Mouse Bone Marrow-derived Hematopoietic Stem/Progenitor Cells (HSPCs) with IFN-α (Viral System, Lentivirus) (MTS-1122-YF96)

Datasheet

Cell Properties

Product Overview

As a therapeutic tool, macrophage cell has a great capacity for delivering cargos because of their intrinsic characteristics. This product is engineered Mouse Bone Marrow-derived Hematopoietic Stem/Progenitor Cells (HSPCs) carried with IFN-α by Viral System-Lentivirus. MacroCargo™ products aim to improve the macrophage function and delivery of specific cargos. We also provide custom macrophage delivery systems based on your specific requirements.

Mouse

Cell Background

High-dose chemotherapy followed by adjuvant autologous hematopoietic stem/progenitor cell (HSPC) transplantation has been tested for the treatment of hematological and solid tumors and can be regarded as a clinical option for certain types of cancer. Scientists have highlighted the important contribution of bone marrow (BM)-derived myeloid cells to tumor angiogenesis.

Introduction

This gene is a member of the alpha interferon gene cluster on chromosome 9. The encoded cytokine is a member of the type I interferon family that is produced in response to viral infection as a key part of the innate immune response with potent antiviral, antiproliferative and immunomodulatory properties. This cytokine, like other type I interferons, binds a plasma membrane receptor made of IFNAR1 and IFNAR2 that is ubiquitously expressed, and thus is able to act on virtually all body cells. This cytokine is upregulated in preeclamptic placentas and is thought to be a mediator of preeclampsia.
