Abstract:MDSCs are increased in the marrow (BM), lungs, liver, and tumors of TB hosts as compared to non-TB (NTB) mice. In vivo, BrdU labeling of leukocytes from 4T1 mammary TB mice revealed that MDSCs had an increased rate of proliferation in BM, spleen, lungs, and liver. MDSCs are observed in the highest frequency in the blood and spleen, suggesting hematopoietic progenitors mobilized from BM and proliferated following arrest. We assessed the biodistribution of circulating cells using CFSE-labeled spleen cells from T… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
