CC chemokine receptor 5 gene promoter activation by the cyclic AMP response element binding transcription factor
30 May 2008
Abstract excerpt
The chemokine receptor CCR5 is implicated in the pathogenesis of various inflammatory diseases, such as multiple sclerosis (MS), atherosclerosis, transplant rejection, and autoimmunity. In previous studies, we have shown that MS lesions are characterized by enhanced expression of transcription factors associated with stress responses, ie, IRF-1, NF-kappaB, and CREB-1, which modulate expression of both classes of...
