## Abstract Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are responsible for degradation of extracellular matrix and play important roles in cell migration, proliferation, and tissue remodeling related to airway inflammation. Interleukin‐1β (IL‐1β) has been shown to induce MMP‐9 production in many cell types a

## Abstract Interleukin‐1β (IL‐1β) has been shown to induce the expression of intercellular adhesion molecule‐1 (ICAM‐1) on airway epithelial cells and contributes to inflammatory responses. However, the mechanisms regulating ICAM‐1 expression by IL‐1β in human A549 cells was not completely underst
## Abstract Upregulation of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), especially MMP‐9, by oxidized low‐density lipoprotein (oxLDL) is implicated in many inflammatory diseases including brain injury. However, the signaling mechanisms underlying oxLDL‐induced MMP‐9 expression in astrocytes largely remain un
## Abstract Enterovirus 71 (EV71) induces the expression of cyclooxgenase (COX)‐2 served as a major neurotoxic factor in CNS injury. However, the mechanisms underlying EV71‐initiated intracellular signaling pathways leading to COX‐2 expression remain unknown. Therefore, we investigated the mechanis
