NF-κB and CREB Are Required for Angiotensin II Type 1 Receptor Upregulation in Neurons

Abstract excerpt

Nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) and the Ets like gene-1 (Elk-1) are two transcription factors that have been previously established to contribute to the Angiotensin II mediated upregulation of Angiotensin II type 1 receptor (AT1R) in neurons. The cAMP response element binding protein (CREB) is another transcription factor that has also been implicated in AT1R gene transcription. The goal of the current study was...
