Induction of Heme Oxygenase -1 By Lipocalin 2 Mediated By Nf-Kb Transcription Factor
Purpose: Effect of lipocalin 2 on the expression of heme oxygenase I , II and NF-kB transcription factor was the purpose of this survey. Materials and Methods: Lcn2 was cloned to pcDNA3.1 plasmid by using genetic engineering method. The recombinant vector was transfected to CHO and HEK293T to establish stable cell expressing lipocalin 2. The presence of lipocalin 2 gene in these cells was confi...
متن کاملAkt protects mouse hepatocytes from TNF-a- and Fas-mediated apoptosis through NK-kB activation
Hatano, Etsuro, and David A. Brenner Akt protects mouse hepatocytes from TNF-aand Fas-mediated apoptosis through NK-kB activation. Am J Physiol Gastrointest Liver Physiol 282: G1357–G1368, 2002.—To determine the role of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)/Akt and nuclear factor-kB (NF-kB) in protecting hepatocytes from tumor necrosis factor-a (TNF-a)and Fas-mediated apoptosis, we pretreated pr...
متن کاملErythromycin Inhibits Transcriptional Activation of NF-kB, but not NFAT, through Calcineurin-Independent Signaling in T Cells
The molecular mechanism of the anti-inflammatory effect of erythromycin (EM) was investigated at the level of transcriptional regulation of cytokine gene expression in T cells. EM (>10 M) significantly inhibited interleukin-8 (IL-8) expression but not IL-2 expression from T cells induced with 20 ng of phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) per ml plus 2 mM calcium ionophore (P-I). In electrophor...
متن کاملAspirin Inhibits Chlamydia pneumoniae–Induced Nuclear Factor-kB Activation, Cytokine Expression, and Bacterial Development in Human Endothelial Cells
Objective—Chlamydia pneumoniae has been associated with atherosclerosis. Infection of vascular endothelial cells with C pneumoniae increases the expression of proatherogenic cytokines mediated by nuclear factor (NF)-kB, a transcription factor. The present study was designed to test the effect of aspirin on C pneumoniae–induced NF-kB activation, interleukin expression, and bacterial development ...
متن کاملCurcumin sensitizes prostate cancer cells to tumor necrosis factor–related apoptosis-inducing ligand/Apo2L by inhibiting nuclear factor-KB through suppression of IKBA phosphorylation
Epidemiologic studies suggest that diet rich in plantderived foods plays an important role in the prevention of prostate cancer. Curcumin, the yellow pigment in the spice turmeric, has been shown to exhibit chemopreventive and growth inhibitory activities against multiple tumor cell lines. We have shown previously that curcumin and tumor necrosis factor–related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL)...
