Abstract excerpt
The aim of this study was to characterize the functional relevance of the transcription factor NF-kappaB in the pathogenesis of septic shock. BALB/c mice were infected with two wild-type (WT 1, WT 2) strains of S. typhimurium that induce NF-kappaB or an escape variant that lacks this ability (P21) at a dose of 1 x 109/animal, respectively. Furthermore, wild-type infected mice were treated with antisense...
