  1. 1. Regulation of NF-κB by Calmodulin

    Author : Åsa Antonsson; Thomas Grundström; Ylva Engström; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Molecular biology; NF-κB; calmodulin; transcription; calcium; Molekylärbiologi; Molecular biology; Molekylärbiologi; molekylärbiologi; Molecular Biology;

    Abstract : Cells experience numerous external signals which they must respond to. Such signals arriving at the cell surface are transduced via various signal transduction pathways and often ultimately result in regulation of transcription. READ MORE

  2. 2. Calmodulin mediated regulation of NF-kappaB in lymphocytes

    Author : Sofia Edin; Thomas Grundström; Sam Okret; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; calcium; CaM; CaMKII; NF-kappaB; Bc110; immunological synapse; Molecular biology; Molekylärbiologi;

    Abstract : NF-κB transcription factors are regulators of a wide spectrum of genes involved in immune responses and inflammation as well as cellular proliferation and survival. Transcriptionally competent NF-κB dimers are retained in the cytoplasm of resting cells by binding to inhibitors of NF-κB (IκBs). READ MORE

  3. 3. Regulation of activation of NF-κB by Calmodulin in T-lymphocytes

    Author : Sreenivasa Rao Oruganti; Thomas Grundström; Eva Sverinson; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : Calcium; Calmodulin; CaMKII; TCR; Bcl10; NF-κB;

    Abstract : Nuclear factor kappa B (NF-kB) is a widely expressed family of transcription factors that are involved in a diverse number of processes. These include inflammation or differentiation, survival or apoptosis, and proliferation or cell cycle arrest. READ MORE

  4. 4. Development and Application of Triple Specific Proximity Ligation Assays (3PLA)

    Author : Edith Schallmeiner; Ulf Landegren; Larry Gold; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : Molecular medicine; proxmity ligation; method development; cell siganling; Molekylärmedicin;

    Abstract : After the completion of the human genome project the human genome was annotated with the surprisingly small amount of 24 000 (www.ensemble.com) genes. READ MORE

  5. 5. The nuclear factor k[kappa]B signal transduction pathway : its role in atherogenesis and intimal hyperplasia

    Author : De-xiu Bu; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : Atherosclerosis; intimal hyperplasia; NF-kappaB; NGAL; Telomerase; Leukotriene B4;

    Abstract : Vascular inflammation is a hallmark of major cardiovascular diseases such as atherosclerosis, and also suggested as a critical component implicated in intimal hyperplasia. Given its central role in regulating expression of inflammatory genes, the nuclear factor kappaB (NF-kappaB) signal transduction pathway was postulated to play an important role in these pathological processes.
