Differential expression of granulopoiesis related genes in neutrophil subsets distinguished by membrane expression of CD177.
<h4>Objective</h4>Differential gene expression in CD177+ and CD177- neutrophils was investigated, in order to detect possible differences in neutrophil function which could be related to the pathogenesis of ANCA-associated Vasculitides (AAV).<h4>Methods</h4>Neutrophils were i...
