Gender-specific estrogen receptor alpha (ERalpha) expression may plausibly influence lung carcinogenesis in females. Initial genome-wide microarray studies confirmed that carcinogen metabolism genes (CYP1A1, CYP1B1) were those most responsive to cigarette smoke extract (CSE) in normal bronchial epit
## Abstract Up‐regulation of cytosolic phospholipase A~2~ (cPLA~2~) by cigarette smoke extract (CSE) may play a critical role in airway inflammatory diseases. However, the mechanisms underlying CSE‐induced cPLA~2~ expression in human tracheal smooth muscle cells (HTSMCs) were not completely underst
