Strawberry notch homolog 2 is a novel inflammatory response factor predominantly but not exclusively expressed by astrocytes in the central nervous system
22 Apr 2015
Abstract excerpt
Interleukin-6 (IL-6) participates in the host response to injury and infection in the central nervous system (CNS). We identified strawberry notch homolog 2 (Sbno2) as an IL-6-stimulated gene in murine astrocytes. Sbno2 is a mouse homolog of the sno gene in Drosophila but little is known about the regulation or function of the mammalian gene. Here we examined the regulation of the Sbno2 gene in astrocytes in...
