Journal ArticleDOI

Nrf2 suppresses macrophage inflammatory response by blocking proinflammatory cytokine transcription

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that Nrf2 interferes with lipopolysaccharide-induced transcriptional upregulation of proinflammatory cytokines, including IL-6 and IL-1β, and establishes a molecular basis for an NRF2-mediated anti-inflammation approach.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cloning of the gamma chain of the human IL-2 receptor

TL;DR: A third subunit, the gamma chain, of the human interleukin-2 receptor (IL-2R) was identified, and a complementary DNA clone encoding this member of the cytokine receptor family was isolated.
Journal ArticleDOI

TAK1, but not TAB1 or TAB2, plays an essential role in multiple signaling pathways in vivo

TL;DR: The studies suggests that TAK1 acts as an upstream activating kinase for IKKbeta and JNK, but not IKKalpha, revealing an unexpectedly specific role of TAK 1 in inflammatory signaling pathways.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mechanism of p38 MAP kinase activation in vivo

TL;DR: It is shown that MKK3 and MKK6 are essential for tumor necrosis factor-stimulated p38 MAPK activation, and loss of p38MAPK activation in the mutant cells was associated with defects in growth arrest and increased tumorigenesis.
Journal ArticleDOI

The interleukin-2 receptor gamma chain: its role in the multiple cytokine receptor complexes and T cell development in XSCID.

TL;DR: The molecular identification of the gamma chain brought a grasp of the structures and functions of the cytokine receptor and an in-depth understanding of the cause of human XSCID.
