The expression of pEL98 (also termed mts1), an S100-related calcium-binding protein, was induced during macrophagic or granulocytic differentiation of human promyelocytic leukemia HL-60 cells in response to phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate or dimethylsulfoxide, respectively. However, pEL98 expression remained at the low level during granulocytic differentiation of the cells by the treatment with all-trans retinoic acid. The expression of cell motility, but not adhesiveness or phagocytic ability, was found to be coincided with that of pEL98 (mts1), suggesting that pEL98 (mts1) is involved in regulating cell motility. Immunocytochemical analysis demonstrated that pEL98 (mts1) was expressed in human monocytes, macrophages and polymorphonuclear leukocytes.

D007700	Kinetics	The rate dynamics in chemical or physical systems.
D007963	Leukocytes, Mononuclear	Mature LYMPHOCYTES and MONOCYTES transported by the blood to the body's extravascular space. They are morphologically distinguishable from mature granulocytic leukocytes by their large, non-lobed nuclei and lack of coarse, heavily stained cytoplasmic granules.

D008264	Macrophages	The relatively long-lived phagocytic cell of mammalian tissues that are derived from blood MONOCYTES. Main types are PERITONEAL MACROPHAGES; ALVEOLAR MACROPHAGES; HISTIOCYTES; KUPFFER CELLS of the liver; and OSTEOCLASTS. They may further differentiate within chronic inflammatory lesions to EPITHELIOID CELLS or may fuse to form FOREIGN BODY GIANT CELLS or LANGHANS GIANT CELLS.

D009418	S100 Proteins	A family of highly acidic calcium-binding proteins found in large concentration in the brain and believed to be glial in origin. They are also found in other organs in the body. They have in common the EF-hand motif (EF HAND MOTIFS) found on a number of calcium binding proteins. The name of this family derives from the property of being soluble in a 100% saturated ammonium sulfate solution.
