1. β2 integrin-induced signal transduction in granulocytic cells
Sammanfattning : Neutrophil granulocytcs are highly mobile, phagocytic white blood cells whose motile functions are critically dependent on adhesion receptors belonging to the B2 integrin subfamily. These integrins are vital for neutrophil functions due to their ability to generate intracellular signals. LÄS MER
2. Platelet-mediated inhibition of polymorphonuclear neutrophil apoptosis
Sammanfattning : Neutrophils play an important role in the cell-mediated immune response against invading micro-organisms. Upon infection, neutrophils in the bloodstream transmigrate into the tissue where they bind to and engulf the microbes. The infecting agent is then eliminated using reactive oxygen species (ROS) and proteolytic enzymes. LÄS MER
