Abstract excerpt
Activation of nuclear factor (NF)-kappaB and subsequent proinflammatory gene expression in human airway epithelial cells can be evoked by oxidative stress. In this study we examined signal transduction pathways activated by vanadyl sulfate (V(IV))-induced oxidative stress in normal human bronchial epithelial cells. Both nuclear translocation of NF-kappaB and enhanced kappaB-dependent transcription induced by...
