Abstract excerpt
Repression of the nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-kappaB) pathway has been extensively researched because of its pivotal role in inflammation. We investigated the potential of the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR) to suppress NF-kappaB regulated-gene expression, especially acute-phase genes, such as serum amyloid A (Saa). Using AHR mutants, it was determined that nuclear translocation and heterodimerization with...
