Abstract
Like the oocyte, the cells of the early embryo, and primordial germ cells, human teratocarcinoma stem cells are pluripotent, capable of giving rise to a wide range of somatic and extraembryonic tissues. Growth factors which regulate the growth of multipotent stem cells in the mouse have been identified, but none of these have been shown conclusively to have similar effects on human or primate multipotent stem cells. CD30 is a member of the tumour necrosis factor receptor superfamily with a restricted pattern of tissue distribution, limited to immune cells, decidual tissue, and human embryonal carcinoma: in common with other embryonal carcinoma markers, CD30 is found in foci of cells in a sub-population of seminomas. CD30 ligand is a transmembrane protein, structurally related to tumour necrosis superfamily members TNF alpha, TNF beta, and CD40. CD30 ligand is expressed by T and B lymphocytes, macrophages, and a variety of normal haematopoietic cells and tumours derived from them, and exerts pleiotropic effects on normal and malignant lymphoid cells, including death, differentiation, or cell division. Studies on cultured cell lines derived from human embryonal carcinomas and yolk sac carcinomas confirm CD30 expression in the for...Continue Reading
