Abstract excerpt
A large set of chemokines is highly up-regulated in human chondrocytes in response to IL-1β (Sandell, L. J., Xing, X., Franz, C., Davies, S., Chang, L. W., and Patra, D. (2008) Osteoarthr. Cartil. 16, 1560-1571). To investigate the mechanism of transcriptional regulation, deletion constructs of selected chemokine gene promoters, the human CCL3 (MIP-1α) and CCL4 (MIP-1β), were transfected into human chondrocytes...
