Activation of Nuclear Factor κB in Human Lymphoblastoid Cells by Low-Dose Ionizing Radiation
1 Jun 1994
Abstract excerpt
Nuclear factor kappa B (NF-kappa B) is a pleiotropic transcription factor which is involved in the transcriptional regulation of several specific genes. Recent reports demonstrated that ionizing radiation in the dose range of 2-50 Gy results in expression of NF-kappa B in human KG-1 myeloid leukemia cells and human B-lymphocyte precursor cells; the precise mechanism involved and the significance are not yet...
