Differentiated fate of mononuclear cells and atherosclerosis / 中国病理生理杂志

ABSTRACT

Mononuclear cells(MNCs) isolatedfrommammal'sbonemarrowandperipheral bloodbymeansof Ficoll density grandient centrifugation,which are composed of monocytes and lymphocytes,can differentiate into different progenitor cells with different functions in the development of atherosclerosis under different inducing conditions. This article described the induction conditions of MNCs,the identification methods of different progenitor cells,and the relationship between these progenitor cells and the development of atherosclerosis,thus provide a new idea for the prevention of the atherosclerosis.
