Application of Western Blot for detection of neutrophil apoptosis-related proteins
Acta Universitatis Agriculturae et Silviculturae Mendelianae Brunensis, 2009 The aim of this study was to evaluate suitability of using Western Blot for detection of neutrophil apoptosis and neutrophil apoptosis-related proteins, respectively. Neutrophils were isolated from blood of healthy adult donors and incubated with G-CSF

Granulocyte Macrophage Colony-Stimulating Factor [PDF]
The Journal of Experimental Medicine, 2001 Experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE), a model for multiple sclerosis, can be induced by immunization with a number of myelin antigens. In particular, myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein, a central nervous system (CNS)-specific antigen expressed on the myelin surface, is able to induce a paralytic MS-like disease with extensive CNS ...

Differential fMet-Leu-Phe- and Platelet-activating Factor-induced Signaling Toward Ral Activation in Primary Human Neutrophils [PDF]
, 1999 We have measured the activation of the small GTPase Ral in human neutrophils after stimulation with fMet- Leu-Phe (fMLP), platelet activating factor (PAF), and granulocyte macrophage-colony stimulating factor and compared it with the activation of ...

Modulation of colony stimulating factor release and apoptosis in human colon cancer cells by anticancer drugs [PDF]
Modulation of the immune response against tumour cells is emerging as a valuable approach for cancer treatment. Some experimental studies have shown that secretion of colony stimulating factors by cancer cells reduces their tumorigenicity and increases ...
