Molecular Mechanism Of Acute Phase Response : Identification Of Signal Transduction Pathways Mediating Cytokine Inhibitory Effect On Human Peroxisome Proliferator Activated Receptor Alpha (PPARa) In Liver Cells

Cytokines, like IL-6, play an important role in triggering the acute phase response (APR) of the body to injury and inflammation. The dynamics of expression and interaction of the IL-6 signalling pathway components in the regulation of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha (PPARα) during...
