Stroma+monocytes

ABSTRACT: Gene expression of adherent cells in a coculture of the human bone marrow stromal cell line HS-27a and peripheral blood monocytes (CD14+ cells) was compared to HS-27a cultured alone. Microarray experiments were conducted using CD14+ cells from 7 healthy donors over a period of >7 months. Monocytes were isolated by ficoll separation of whole blood, followed by labelling cells with CD14 monoclonal antibody Tuek4 and magnetic bead selection (Milteny rat anti mouse IgG2a+2b beads) on an AutoMacs. HS27a cells were plated in T75 flasks at approximately 80% confluence. The next day 1.5x10E6 freshly isloated human CD14+ cells were added to the culture. At 3 days the cultures were washed 3x with Hankâ??s buffer to remove nonadherent monocytes. Co-cultures and HS27a cultured alone were harvested by
