Abstract excerpt
The expression and function of surface TRAIL and TRAIL receptors were investigated in primary megakaryocytic cells, generated in serum-free liquid phase from peripheral human CD34(+) cells. The surface expression of both TRAIL and "death receptor" TRAIL-R2 became detectable starting from the early phase of megakaryocytic differentiation (day 6 of culture) and persisted at later (days10-14) culture times. On the...
