To examine how a cell's maturity affects its usefulness for cloning, Xiangzhong (Jerry) Yang of the University of Connecticut in Storrs and his colleagues worked with three types of blood cells from a mouse: stem cells that produce all types of blood cells, more-mature cells that can make only a few blood cell types, and fully mature white blood cells called granulocytes that can no longer divide. Major surface protein 2 (Msp2) of Anaplasma phagocytophilum facilitates adherence to granulocytes. In line with previous histopathological findings were increased transcript levels of markers for granulocytes and macrophages. |
