Abstract
primed, but not IL8 stimulated PMN from CD patients was observed. Conclusions: Although initiation of apoptosis in CD PMN is normal as determined by Annexin V staining, an enhanced survival signal provided by GM-CSF-induced PKB activation may lead to a decreased cleaving of caspases, thereby rescuing PMN from the apoptotic pathway. In toto, our results suggest an enhanced GM-CSF-mediated PMN survival, which may play a role in the chronic intestinal inflammation in CD.
