Role of microglial IKKbeta in kainic acid-induced hippocampal neuronal cell death

TL;DR: It is concluded that IKK/nuclear factor-kappaB dependent microglia activation contributes to KA-induced hippocampal neuronal cell death in vivo through induction of inflammatory mediators.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cancer cells escape autophagy inhibition via NRF2-induced macropinocytosis

TL;DR: In this article, an autophagy-inhibiting monotherapies have not demonstrated potent anti-cancer activity, but they have been shown to upregulate and utilize an alternative nutrient procurement pathway: macropinocytosis (MP) that allows tumor cells to extract nutrients from extracellular sources and use them for energy generation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Regulation of collagenase gene expression by okadaic acid, an inhibitor of protein phosphatases

TL;DR: It is suggested that phosphorylation regulates collagenase gene expression mediated by an AP-1 binding site through a region known to contain multiple regulatory elements.
Journal ArticleDOI

IκB Kinase Complex α Kinase Activity Controls Chemokine and High Endothelial Venule Gene Expression in Lymph Nodes and Nasal-Associated Lymphoid Tissue

TL;DR: A critical role for IKKα is revealed in LN and NALT development, analysis of LTβ−/− mice identifies GlyCAM-1 and high endothelial cell sulfotransferase as new IKK α-dependent target genes are identified, and it is suggested that LTβR signaling on HEV can regulate HEV-specific gene expression.
Journal ArticleDOI

Primary induction of metallothionein by dexamethasone in cultured rat hepatocytes

TL;DR: The glucocorticoid induction of metallothionein in primary cultures of rat hepatocytes is not mediated through elevation of Zn++ uptake, and the dexamethasone stimulated increase in Zn ++ uptake is inhibited by cycloheximide.
