In this report we describe four cases of acute megakaryocytic leukemia demonstrated by the presence of megakaryocyteplatelet-related cell-surface antigens. These were detected utilizing flow cytometry and monoclonal antibodies In addition to both platelet peroxldase activity, which was shown by ultr

## Abstract ## Objective S100 proteins have been implicated in various inflammatory conditions, including arthritis. The aims of this study were to determine whether chondrocytes produce S100A4 and whether S100A4 can stimulate the production of matrix metalloproteinase 13 (MMPβ13) by articular cho
evidence that adequate antibiotic therapy eventually eradicates Borrelia even from poorly accessible sites such as synovium. Paradoxically, in the recent Infectious Diseases Society of America guidelines on the treatment of Lyme disease (2), a single-dose antibiotic strategy for preventing Lyme dise
Changes in integrin expression during malignant transformation have been observed in many tumors. Colon-carcinoma cells show reduced expression or even loss of the β£5β€1 integrin compared to normal or adenoma cells. To determine the significance of absent β£5β€1 integrin signaling, we transfected the c
The presence of antimitochondrial antibodies (AMA) is a major criterion for the diagnosis of primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC). Although it is not clear that AMA are involved in the pathogenesis of the disease, the study of these autoantibodies has enabled much information to be accumulated about the
