H5N1 Virus Activates Signaling Pathways in Human Endothelial Cells Resulting in a Specific Imbalanced Inflammatory Response
25 Nov 2010
Abstract excerpt
H5N1 influenza virus infections in humans cause a characteristic systemic inflammatory response syndrome; however, the molecular mechanisms are largely unknown. Endothelial cells (ECs) play a pivotal role in hyperdynamic septic diseases. To unravel specific signaling networks activated by H5N1 we used a genome-wide comparative systems biology approach analyzing gene expression in human ECs infected with three...
