The regulatory role of serum response factor pathway in neutrophil inflammatory response.

Taylor A1, Halene S.
Current opinion in hematology.Curr Opin Hematol.2015 Jan;22(1):67-73. doi: 10.1097/MOH.0000000000000099.
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Neutrophils rapidly migrate to sites of injury and infection. Egress of neutrophils from the circulation into tissues is a highly regulated process involving several distinct steps. Cell-cell interactions mediated by selectins and integrins and reorganization of the actin cytoskel

Disorganization of Actin Polymerization in Neutrophils of a Patient with Leukocyte Adhesion Dysfunction: A Bioimaging Analysis Using a Polarized Microscopic System LC-Pol Scope

Matsuoka Toshiyuki,Katoh Kaoru,Hoshino Nao,Matsunaga Tiichiro,Saito Noriko,Suzuki Kenji,Yamada Masahiro,Shimojo Naoki,Kono Yoichi,Arai Takao,Suzuki Kazuo
bioimages 11(3/4), 105-114, 2003
… The disorganization of actin polymerization associated with lamelipodia formation in neutrophils of patient with leukocyte adhesion dysfunction syndrome (LAD), which lack Mac-1 on their membranes due to point mutation, was analyzed with a bioimaging system using a polarized microscopic system LC-Pol Scope. … The disorganization of the fibrous cytoskeleton was observed with a scanning electronic microscope after Triton X-100 treatment followed by actin polymerization with rhodamin-phalloidin staining. …
