Abstract excerpt
The human type A interleukin-8 receptor (IL-8RA) was modified to express an amino-terminal epitope tag and stably overexpressed in a rat basophilic leukemia cell line (RBL-2H3). This receptor (ET-IL-8RA) displayed functional properties similar to those of the native receptor in neutrophils in that exposure to IL-8 stimulated GTPase activity, phosphoinositide (PI) hydrolysis, intracellular calcium mobilization,...
