Nucleotide-induced PMN adhesion to cultured epithelial cells: Possible role of MUC1 mucin

Nucleotide-induced PMN adhesion to cultured epithelial cells: Possible role of MUC1 mucin

Accumulation of intraluminal polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN) is a hallmark of inflammatory diseases of the airways. Extracellular nucleotides stimulate PMN adhesion to human main pulmonary artery endothelial cells (HPAEC) by a purinoceptor-mediated mechanism.
