1. New aspects on retinoic acid induced HL-60 granulocytic differentiation
Abstract : The underlying mechanisms of myeloid cell differentiation are still not entirely elucidated. It is therefore an urgent task to extent the basis for a comprehensive model of granulocytes differentiation. A primary goal for studies has been the identification of differentiation markers.

2. Storage organelles that are distinct from the classical granules in human neutrophils
Abstract : The human neutrophil is a crucial participant in acute inflammation. Appropriate immune response is dependent on rapid direction of phagocytic cells through the tissue, towards the inflammatory focus. Such movement is governed by chemoattractants, e.g. READ MORE

3. DNA-dependent protein kinase in human cells
Abstract : DNA-dependent protein kinase (DNA-PK) is a holoenzyme consisting of a regulatory subunit, the heterodimeric Ku70/86, and a catalytic subunit known as DNA-dependent protein kinase catalytic subunit (DNA-PKcs). DNA-PK takes part in a number of cellular functions including growth control, immunoglobulin gene rearrangement and DNA repair. READ MORE

4. Membrane traffic in neutrophils and neutrophil-like cells
Abstract : The neutrophil constitutes the first line of defence against invading organisms and its primary function is to recognize, phagocytose and kill intruding microorganisms. In this thesis, the membrane traffic in neutrophils and neutrophil-like cells was studied. Non-opsonised S. READ MORE

5. Transforming growth factor a in human hematopoietic cells
Abstract : TGF-a, transforming growth factor a, is a potent growth factor belonging to the family of EGF (epidermal growth factor) -related proteins. Binding to the same receptor as EGF it has a ubiquitous repertoire of target cells, including, mesenchymal, epithelial and neuronal cells. READ MORE
