Study on the Correlation between Clinical Classification according to Hemorrhagic Symptoms and Platelet Counts in Childhood Idiopathic Thrombocytopenic Purpura

Ho Il Bang, Sae Ron Shin, Du Young Choi

Clin Exp Pediatr. 2004;47(4):412-416. Published online April 15, 2004

Purpose : Idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura(ITP) is a relatively common hematologic disease in children. The optimal strategy for treating ITP during childhood is a matter of controversy. In general, platelet count has been the primary, if not the sole measure, on which treatment decisions have been made and outcomes determined. In this study, we tried to find out the correlation between...

Sensitization of TNFα and Agonistic FAS/CD95 Antibody-Induced Apoptosis by INFγ on Neuroblastoma Cells

Ho Il Bang, Jong Duck Kim, Du Young Choi

Clin Exp Pediatr. 2003;46(7):702-709. Published online July 15, 2003

Purpose : IFNγ sentitizes many tumor cells to TNFα and FASL-mediated apoptosis by enhancing the expression of TNF or FAS/CD95 receptor and modulating the activation of caspase and Bcl-2 family. It has been reported that IFNγ and TNFα synergistically caused differentiation and growth inhibition of neuroblastoma cells. Even though some neuroblastoma cell express FASR/FASL on the cell surface, they could...
