1 Glatiramer acetate blocks interleukin-1-dependent nuclear factor-kappaB activation and RANTES expression in human U-251 MG astroglial cells. Glatiramer Acetate C-C motif chemokine ligand 5 Homo sapiens
2 Glatiramer acetate is a drug recently approved for the treatment of MS. We therefore investigated the effect of glatiramer acetate on RANTES expression in glial cells in vitro. Glatiramer Acetate C-C motif chemokine ligand 5 Homo sapiens
3 Treatment of human U-251 MG astroglial cells with glatiramer acetate blocks IL-1beta-induced RANTES chemokine production in a dose- and time-dependent manner. Glatiramer Acetate interleukin 1 beta Homo sapiens
4 Treatment of human U-251 MG astroglial cells with glatiramer acetate blocks IL-1beta-induced RANTES chemokine production in a dose- and time-dependent manner. Glatiramer Acetate C-C motif chemokine ligand 5 Homo sapiens
5 Glatiramer acetate also decreased steady-state levels of RANTES mRNA in these cells, which was attributable to reduced transcription, as assessed by nuclear run-on assays. Glatiramer Acetate C-C motif chemokine ligand 5 Homo sapiens
6 Furthermore, we demonstrated that the increase in NF-kappaB DNA-binding activity was prevented by pretreatment with glatiramer acetate or the NF-kappaB inhibitors. Glatiramer Acetate nuclear factor kappa B subunit 1 Homo sapiens
7 Our results suggest that glatiramer acetate may inhibit IL-1beta-stimulated RANTES expression in human glial cells by blocking NF-kappaB activation, thus identifying part of the molecular basis for its anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive effects in demyelinating diseases. Glatiramer Acetate interleukin 1 beta Homo sapiens
8 Our results suggest that glatiramer acetate may inhibit IL-1beta-stimulated RANTES expression in human glial cells by blocking NF-kappaB activation, thus identifying part of the molecular basis for its anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive effects in demyelinating diseases. Glatiramer Acetate C-C motif chemokine ligand 5 Homo sapiens
9 Our results suggest that glatiramer acetate may inhibit IL-1beta-stimulated RANTES expression in human glial cells by blocking NF-kappaB activation, thus identifying part of the molecular basis for its anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive effects in demyelinating diseases. Glatiramer Acetate nuclear factor kappa B subunit 1 Homo sapiens
