Synergistic Regulation of the Human Interleukin-12 p40 Promoter by NFκB and Ets Transcription Factors in Epstein-Barr Virus-transformed B Cells and Macrophages
1 Mar 1998
Abstract excerpt
Monocytes/macrophages produce interleukin-12 (IL-12) in response to pathogenic stimulation, whereas most Epstein-Barr virus-transformed (EBV+) B cells constitutively secrete IL-12. The molecular mechanism regulating the constitutive IL-12 gene expression in EBV+ B cells has not been addressed. In this study, using the EBV+ B cell line RPMI-8866, we localized to the human IL-12 p40 promoter two essential cis...
