NBD-cholesterol incorporation by rat macrophages and lymphocytes: a process dependent on the activation state of the cells.

abstract：:Although techniques for purifying epidermal stem cells (ESCs) have been established, enriching a pure population of viable ESCs is still a challenging task. One approach toward enhancing the purity and viability of ESCs involves cell markers. While evidence suggests that p63 plays a role in maintaining the population ...
