Journal ArticleDOI

p38 MAP kinase and MKK-1 co-operate in the generation of GM-CSF from LPS-stimulated human monocytes by an NF-κB-independent mechanism

TL;DR: Results suggest that the generation of GM‐CSF by LPS‐stimulated human monocytes is regulated in a co‐operative fashion by p38 MAP kinase‐ and MKK‐1‐dependent signalling pathways independently of the activation of NF‐κB.
Journal ArticleDOI

Glucocorticoids reverse IL-1β-induced impairment of β-adrenoceptor-mediated relaxation and up-regulation of G-protein-coupled receptor kinases

TL;DR: It is proposed that both the decrease in AC activity and the increase in GRK activity, which are reversed by dexamethasone, may underlie β2‐adrenoceptor desensitization.
Journal ArticleDOI

IL-1β and TNF-α Regulation of the Adenosine Receptor (A2A) Expression: Differential Requirement for NF-κB Binding to the Proximal Promoter

TL;DR: The results directly implicate a major role for NF-κB in the regulation of A2AR gene transcription by IL-1β and TNF-α but suggest that the effects of T NF-α on A2 AR gene transcription are not mediated through the proximal promoter.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of CP-96,345, a non-peptide NK1 receptor antagonist, against substance P-, bradykinin- and allergen-induced airway microvascular leakage and bronchoconstriction in the guinea pig.

TL;DR: NK1 receptor-mediated mechanisms may contribute to SP- and BK-induced airway microvascular leakage and SP-induced bronchoconstriction and hypotension and these mechanisms are not important in the acute airway responses induced by inhaled allergen.
