Influence of IFN-γ on gene expression in normal human bronchial epithelial cells: modulation of IFN-γ effects by dexamethasone
29 Jun 2005
Abstract excerpt
Interferon gamma (IFN-gamma) plays a role in a variety of lung inflammatory responses, and corticosteroids are frequently employed as a treatment in these conditions. Therefore, the effect of IFN-gamma, of the corticosteroid dexamethasone (Dex), or of both on gene expression was studied in normal human bronchial epithelial (NHBE) cells. NHBE cells were exposed to medium alone, IFN-gamma (300 U/ml), Dex (10(-7)...
