A role for NF-κB–dependent gene transactivation in sunburn
Ultraviolet (UV) radiation causes sunburn reactions, immunosuppression, accelerated skin aging, and skin cancer, and it is considered to be an important environmental hazard for humans (1). At cellular levels, UV radiation has been shown to trigger cytokine production (2), regulate surface expression of adhesion molecules (3), affect cellular mitosis (4), and induce apoptotic cell death (5, 6)....
متن کاملSumoylation of HDAC2 promotes NF-κB-dependent gene expression
The transcription factor nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) is crucial for the maintenance of homeostasis. It is incompletely understood how nuclear NF-κB and the crosstalk of NF-κB with other transcription factors are controlled. Here, we demonstrate that the epigenetic regulator histone deacetylase 2 (HDAC2) activates NF-κB in transformed and primary cells. This function depends on both, the catalytic...
متن کاملInduction of thioredoxin and thioredoxin reductase gene expression in lungs of newborn primates by oxygen.
Thioredoxin (TRX) is a potent protein disulfide oxidoreductase important in antioxidant defense and regulation of cell growth and signal transduction processes, among them the production of nitric oxide. We report that lung TRX and its reductase, TR, are specifically upregulated at birth by O2. Throughout the third trimester, mRNAs for TRX and TR were expressed constitutively at low levels in f...
متن کاملNickel(II) Complex of Polyhydroxybenzaldehyde N4-Thiosemicarbazone Exhibits Anti-Inflammatory Activity by Inhibiting NF-κB Transactivation
BACKGROUND The biological properties of thiosemicarbazone have been widely reported. The incorporation of some transition metals such as Fe, Ni and Cu to thiosemicarbazone complexes is known to enhance its biological effects. In this study, we incorporated nickel(II) ions into thiosemicarbazone with N4-substitution groups H3L (H; H3L1, CH3; H3L2, C6H5; H3L3 and C2H5; H3L4) and examined its pote...
متن کاملCyp1B1 expression promotes angiogenesis by suppressing NF-κB activity.
Nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) is a master regulator of genes that control a large number of cellular processes, including angiogenesis and inflammation. We recently demonstrated that cytochrome P-450 1B1 (Cyp1B1) deficiency in endothelial cells (EC) and pericytes (PC) results in increased oxidative stress, alterations in migration, attenuation of capillary morphogenesis, sustained activation of NF-...
