Research Abstract |
In this project we have aimed at the development of a new method to isolate previously unidentified subfractions in hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) by utilizing their varying responsiveness to a certain cytokine signal. Intracellular markers have been developed as the fluorescent nanoparticles containing peptide substrates for certain kinases. After screening candidate peptide substrates, the synthesized marker will be introduced into HSC to detect and/or subfractionate them for characterization.
