Journal ArticleDOI

A tumor suppressor-dependent inhibitor of angiogenesis is immunologically and functionally indistinguishable from a fragment of thrombospondin

TL;DR: A secreted inhibitor of angiogenesis that is controlled by a tumor suppressor gene in hamster cells has been found to be similar to a fragment of the platelet and matrix protein thrombospondin, which demonstrates a function for the ubiquitous adhesive glycoprotein thromBosponin that is likely to be important in the normal physiological down-regulation of neovascularization.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genomic organization of the selectin family of leukocyte adhesion molecules on human and mouse chromosome 1.

TL;DR: The location of these genes on mouse and human chromosome 1 is consistent with a close evolutionary relationship to the complement receptor-related genes, which also are positioned on the same chromosomes in both species and with which these genes share a region of sequence homology.
Journal ArticleDOI

Interleukin-4 and interleukin-5 map to human chromosome 5 in a region encoding growth factors and receptors and are deleted in myeloid leukemias with a del(5q).

TL;DR: The findings that each IL-4 and IL-5 genes was deleted in the 5q- chromosome suggest that loss of function of one or more of these genes may play an important role in the pathogenesis of hematologic disorders associated with a del(5q).
Journal ArticleDOI

Assignment of CSF-1 to 5q33.1: evidence for clustering of genes regulating hematopoiesis and for their involvement in the deletion of the long arm of chromosome 5 in myeloid disorders

TL;DR: A small segment of chromosome 5 contains GM-CSF, CSF, and FMS, which encodes the CSF-1 receptor, in that order from the centromere; this cluster of genes may be involved in the altered hematopoiesis associated with a deletion of 5q.
