Aberrant activation of stress-response pathways leads to TNF-α oversecretion in Fanconi anemia
1 Dec 2007
Abstract excerpt
Fanconi anemia (FA), an inherited syndrome that associates bone marrow failure, cancer predisposition, and genetic instability, is characterized by an overproduction of the myelosuppressive cytokine TNF-alpha through unknown mechanisms. We demonstrate here that FANC pathway loss-of-function results in the aberrant activation of 2 major stress-signaling pathways: NF-kappaB and MAPKs. These responses are...
