The activation of B and T cells by a wide range of stimuli can rapidly induce specific gene expression via a mechanism that promotes the nuclear translocation of different Rel/nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-kappa B) transcription factors which are normally resident in the cytoplasm. Recent findings high
We previously reported that human head and neck squamous cell carcinomas (HNSCCs) express the proinflammatory and pro-angiogenic cytokines interleukin (IL)-1a, IL-6, IL-8, and granulocyte-macrophage colonystimulating factor in vitro and in vivo. The promoter region of the genes encoding these cytoki
Thrombin, a serine protease, is an important effector of many cellular processes and has been shown to upregulate the expression of several genes. The mechanisms underlying thrombin-mediated regulation of gene transcription remain poorly understood. The original aim of this work was to study the eff
## Abstract IL‐1β is an important mediator in the pathogenesis of type 1 diabetes both in vivo and in vitro and it has been shown to induce islet β‐cell apoptosis. Most of the IL‐1β effects seem to be mediated by NF‐κB transcription factor activation, but its role in the induction of islet β‐cell a
