1 | Inhibition of IL-8 release from CFTR-deficient lung epithelial cells following pre-treatment with fenretinide. | Fenretinide | CF transmembrane conductance regulator | Homo sapiens |
2 | As fenretinide is a ceramide up-regulating drug that inhibits the activation of the pro-inflammatory transcriptional factor, nuclear factor (NF)-kappaB, the impact of fenretinide on unstimulated and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha stimulated production of NF-kappaB-dependent interleukin (IL)-8 was studied in immortalized wild-type (non-CF; 9HTEo-) and mutant DeltaF508 CFTR (CF; CFTE29o-) tracheal epithelial cells. | Fenretinide | CF transmembrane conductance regulator | Homo sapiens |
3 | As fenretinide is a ceramide up-regulating drug that inhibits the activation of the pro-inflammatory transcriptional factor, nuclear factor (NF)-kappaB, the impact of fenretinide on unstimulated and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha stimulated production of NF-kappaB-dependent interleukin (IL)-8 was studied in immortalized wild-type (non-CF; 9HTEo-) and mutant DeltaF508 CFTR (CF; CFTE29o-) tracheal epithelial cells. | Fenretinide | CF transmembrane conductance regulator | Homo sapiens |
4 | Although fenretinide treatment was associated with a higher intracellular ceramide content in the mutant DeltaF508 CFTR cells, the fenretinide-mediated decrease in IL-8 secretion was not consistently explained by changes in the intracellular content of this sphingolipid. | Fenretinide | CF transmembrane conductance regulator | Homo sapiens |
