Endotoxin signal transduction in macrophages

TL;DR: The effects of LPS on macrophages are examined by following events from the cell surface to the nucleus and the involvement of protein tyrosine kinase, mitogen‐activated protein kinases, protein kinase C, G proteins, Protein kinase A, ceramide‐activatedprotein kinase and microtubules in this process are reviewed.
Journal ArticleDOI

HIN-200 proteins regulate caspase activation in response to foreign cytoplasmic DNA.

TL;DR: This work identifies the HIN-200 family member and candidate lupus susceptibility factor, p202, as a dsDNA binding protein that bound stably and rapidly to transfected DNA and indicates that Hin-200 proteins can act as pattern recognition receptors mediating responses to cytoplasmic ds DNA.
Journal Article

Macrophages ingest and are activated by bacterial DNA.

TL;DR: Results suggest that DNA is taken up by macrophages and characteristic bacterial DNA sequences, which include an unmethylated CpG sequence, activate a signaling cascade leading to activation of NF-kappa B and inflammatory gene induction.
Journal ArticleDOI

LPS-induced cytokine production in human monocytes and macrophages.

TL;DR: An overview of LPS signal transduction is provided with attention given to receptor cooperativity and species differences in LPS responses, as well as the role of tyrosine phosphorylation and lysine acetylation in signalling.
Journal ArticleDOI

The transcriptional network that controls growth arrest and differentiation in a human myeloid leukemia cell line

TL;DR: The results indicate that cellular states are constrained by complex networks involving both positive and negative regulatory interactions among substantial numbers of transcription factors and that no single transcription factor is both necessary and sufficient to drive the differentiation process.
