CFTR Expression in human neutrophils and the phagolysosomal chlorination defect in cystic fibrosis.
Production of hypochlorous acid (HOCl) in neutrophils, a critical oxidant involved in bacterial killing, requires chloride anions. Because the primary defect of cystic fibrosis (CF) is the loss of… Expand

Adult stem cells from bone marrow stroma differentiate into airway epithelial cells: potential therapy for cystic fibrosis.
Cystic fibrosis (CF), the most prevalent, fatal genetic disorder in the Caucasian population, is caused by mutations of CF transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR). The mutations of this chloride… Expand

The dynamics of ligand-receptor interactions. Real-time analyses of association, dissociation, and internalization of an N-formyl peptide and its receptors on the human neutrophil.
Parallel cytometric and fluorimetric analyses of the interaction of a fluoresceinated N-formyl hexapeptide (N-formyl-Nle-Leu-Phe-Nle-Tyr-Lys-fluorescein, Nle = norleucine) with its receptors on human… Expand

Relationship of actin polymerization and depolymerization to light scattering in human neutrophils: dependence on receptor occupancy and intracellular Ca++
When exposed to the N-formylated chemoattractant peptides, neutrophils undergo a transient ruffling followed by a polarization that involves a redistribution of F-actin (Fechheimer, M., and S. H.… Expand

CFTR-mediated halide transport in phagosomes of human neutrophils.
Chloride serves as a critical component of innate host defense against infection, providing the substrate for MPO-catalyzed production of HOCl in the phagosome of human neutrophils. Here, we used… Expand

Function of neutral endopeptidase on the cell membrane of human neutrophils.
Intact human neutrophils hydrolyzed N-formyl-Met-Leu-[3H]Phe (fMLP) and released Leu-[3H]Phe, cleaving 45-50% of the peptide within 20 min at 37 degrees C. The dipeptide after its release was then… Expand

Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Conductance Regulator Recruitment to Phagosomes in Neutrophils
Optimal microbicidal activity of human polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN) relies on the generation of toxic agents such as hypochlorous acid (HOCl) in phagosomes. HOCl formation requires H2O2… Expand

Incubation of mouse thymocytes with mitogenic concentrations of concanavalin A causes a 2-fold increase in cell-surface-associated (but not total cell) sialyltransferase activity… Expand

Fluoresceinated chemotactic peptide and high-affinity antifluorescein antibody as a probe of the temporal characteristics of neutrophil stimulation.
Antifluorescein antibody molecules were used to interrupt the stimulation of neutrophils by a fluoresceinated chemotactic peptide. From the results we construct a semiquantitative relationship among… Expand
