Description
Multipotent progenitors (MPP) and common dendritic cell progenitors (CDP) were obtained from mouse bone marrow, followed by in vitro culture with a specific cytokine cocktail and FACS sorting (Felker et al., 2010; Ser et al., 2012). Cells were treated with 10 ng/ml recombinant human TGF-1 (R&D Systems, Minneapolis, USA) for 2, 4, 8, 12 and 24 h as described (Felker et al., 2010) or left untreated.
