## Abstract The epithelium‐specific ETS (ESE)‐1 transcription factor is induced in chondrocytes by interleukin‐1β (IL‐1β). We reported previously that early activation of EGR‐1 by IL‐1β results in suppression of the proximal __COL2A1__ promoter activity by displacement of Sp1 from GC boxes. Here we

Pneumonitis followed by lung fibrosis is a frequent complication of radiation therapy of chest tumors. A hallmark of these fibrotic lesions is the excessive production and accumulation of extracellular matrix proteins such as type I collagen. In addition to TGF-beta1, IL-4 has been recognized as a p
## Abstract Tumor necrosis factor α (TNFα) inhibits matrix synthesis by chondrocytes in rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis; however, the underlying signaling pathways are poorly characterized. This study investigated the TNFα‐activated pathways regulating expression of two key components of th
PTH and PTHrP have been shown to inhibit maturation of growth plate chondrocytes and the expression of type X collagen. In order to examine the regulatory mechanisms involved, fetal bovine growth plate chondrocytes were incubated for 24-48 h under serum-free conditions with PTH and PTHrP and various
