Previously, we determined that activated nuclear factor kappaB (NF-kappaB) is required for doxorubicin and etoposide to kill N-type NB cells. This study was undertaken to determine how NF-kappaB is activated by these agents. The results show that p53 protein levels increase within 15 to 30 minutes of treatment. This increase...
