Embryonic stem cells (ESCs) are pluripotent stem cells that have indefinite self-renewal capacities under appropriate culture conditions in vitro.The pluripotency maintenance and proliferation of these cells are delicately governed by the concert effect of a complex transcriptional regulatory network.Herein, we discovered that p57Kip2 (p57), a cycl
Dendritic cells (DCs) are phagocytes that are highly specialized for antigen presentation.Heterogeneous populations of macrophages and DCs form a phagocyte network inside the red pulp (RP) of Sailing Boots the spleen, which is a major site for the control of blood-borne infections such as malaria.However, the dynamics of splenic DCs during Plasmodi
