1 Role of interleukin-8 and growth-regulated oncogene-alpha in the chemotactic migration of all-trans retinoic acid-treated promyelocytic leukemic cells toward alveolar epithelial cells. Tretinoin C-X-C motif chemokine ligand 8 Homo sapiens
2 We investigated the role of interleukin (IL)-8 and growth-regulated oncogene (GRO)-alpha in the chemotactic transmigration of ATRA-treated NB4 (ATRA-NB4) APL cells toward A549 alveolar epithelial cells. Tretinoin C-X-C motif chemokine ligand 8 Homo sapiens
3 Only A549 cells constitutively secreted GRO-alpha, and both A549 and NB4 cells constitutively secreted IL-8, which was enhanced by ATRA. Tretinoin C-X-C motif chemokine ligand 8 Homo sapiens
4 CONCLUSIONS: IL-8 and GRO-alpha secreted from alveolar epithelial cells play an important role in the cell-cell interaction involved in the chemotactic transmigration of ATRA-treated APL cells toward alveolar epithelial cells. Tretinoin C-X-C motif chemokine ligand 8 Homo sapiens
