Neutrophil-specific granule deficiency includes eosinophils.
Neutrophil-specific granule deficiency is a disorder of leukocyte maturation associated with decreased levels of mRNA for a distinct subset of granule proteins. Our work indicates that this disorder, previously thought to be limited to the neutrophil lineage, can also include eosinophils. Immunofluorescence staining led to the discovery of a small but distinct population of peripheral white blo...
متن کاملTerminally Differentiating Eosinophils Express Neutrophil Primary Granule Proteins as well as Eosinophil-specific Granule Proteins in a Temporal Manner
Neutrophils and eosinophils, 2 prominent granulocytes, are commonly derived from myelocytic progenitors through successive stages in the bone marrow. Our previous genome-wide transcriptomic data unexpectedly showed that genes encoding a multitude of neutrophil primary granule proteins (NPGPs) were markedly downregulated during the end period of eosinophilic terminal differentiation when cord bl...
متن کاملSelective defect in myeloid cell lactoferrin gene expression in neutrophil specific granule deficiency.
Neutrophil specific granule deficiency (SGD) is a congenital disorder associated with an impaired inflammatory response and a deficiency of several granule proteins. The underlying abnormality causing the deficiencies is unknown. We examined mRNA transcription and protein synthesis of two neutrophil granule proteins, lactoferrin and myeloperoxidase in SGD. Metabolically labeled SGD nucleated ma...

Neutrophil-specific granule deficiency involves inheritance of germline mutations in the CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein epsilon (C/EBPE) gene. Humans and mice lacking active C/EBPepsilon suffer frequent bacterial infections as a result of functionally defective neutrophils and macrophages. We hypothesized that these defects reflected dysregulation of important immune response genes. To test thi...
متن کاملHuman neutrophil-specific granule deficiency: a model to assess the role of neutrophil-specific granules in the evolution of the inflammatory response.
It has been suggested that neutrophil (PMN) specific granules are important in cell aggregation, locomotion, hydroxyl radical formation, and in extracellular functions such as the generation of complement-related inflammatory mediators (C5a) and the feedback regulation of myelopoiesis. In the current studies, a 9-yr-old boy with a history of recurrent infections and specific granule deficiency ...
