Tumor necrosis factor-? initiated signal transduction in 3T3-L1 adipocytes
1 Apr 1999
Abstract excerpt
Examination of the ability of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF) to activate both the p44/42 and p38 MAP kinase cascades in fully differentiated 3T3-L1 adipocytes indicated a rapid MEK1/2-dependent activation of p44/42 MAP kinase. Use of the MEK1/2 inhibitor PD98059 indicated that this pathway at least in part was responsible for nuclear localization of the transcription factor NF-kappaB. The...
