The human undifferentiated histiocytic cell-line U937 can be induced to differentiate by incubation with 12-0-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) into macrophagelike cells. Dexamethasone reduced the prostaglandin production in TPA-differentiated U937 cells dose dependently, whereas undifferentiate

Human monocytic leukemia U937 cells undergo apoptosis when treated with antitumor drugs, such as etoposide, camptothecin and mitomycin C. The molecular mechanism of the drug-induced apoptosis is not well understood. In this study, we found that 2-deoxyglucose (2DG), an analog of D-glucose and an ind
## Abstract The effects of P2Y2 purinoceptor activation on c‐Fos expression and the signaling pathways evoked by extracellular ATP/UTP in HeLa cells were investigated. We found that P2Y2 activation induced c‐Fos protein and phosphorylated the extracellular signal‐regulated kinases 1 and 2 (ERK1/2).
## Abstract Myostatin is a negative regulator of skeletal muscle mass. The pathways employed in modulating myostatin gene expression are scarcely known. We aimed to determine the signaling pathway of myostatin induction by a histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor–trichostatin A (TSA) in differentiate
The ability of adenosine to function as an inhibitory modulator of inflammatory processes has been well documented. While the activation of adenosine A 2 receptors has been implicated in the anti-inflammatory actions of adenosine, the specific mechanisms by which adenosine modulates the function of
