Three disparate studies on the CD18 integrin : expression and biological functions of the human CD18 integrin in health and disease

Three disparate studies relating to the CD18 integrin are described in this thesis. Firstly, a particularly elusive CD18 mutation in an Leukocyte Adhesion Deficiency Type I (LAD-I) patient was studied. Genomic DNA and cDNA from an LAD-I patient and her family was analyzed and characterized. This mut...
