Background: Techniques to measure apoptosis are used to study a wide spectrum of conditions, from acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) to cancer to autoimmune diseases. Therefore, a critical comparison of common assays for apoptosis is warranted. Methods: The kinetics of apoptosis induction in
Cell death plays a critical role in the generation of an effective immune system. During maturation T lymphocytes are generated, censored and eliminated in the thymus. These events are temporally associated with developmental changes in the levels of transcription factors including NFAT. The NFAT tr
## Abstract Human mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have been extensively characterized with respect to their in vitro expansion and differentiation potential, especially with respect to osteogenesis. Dexamethasone (Dex) is a well‐known inducer of osteogenic differentiation of MSCs, but little is known
