1 Cd increased the acetylation level of RelA K310 and enhanced BRD4 binding to acetylated NF-kappaB RelA in vivo and in vitro, which were abrogated by inhibiting BRD4. Cadmium RELA proto-oncogene, NF-kB subunit Rattus norvegicus
2 Cd increased the acetylation level of RelA K310 and enhanced BRD4 binding to acetylated NF-kappaB RelA in vivo and in vitro, which were abrogated by inhibiting BRD4. Cadmium RELA proto-oncogene, NF-kB subunit Rattus norvegicus
3 In summary, our study suggests that BRD4 is involved in Cd-triggered transcription of inflammatory cytokines by mediating the activation of NF-kappaB signaling pathway and increasing itself binding to acetylated NF-kappaB RelA in rat kidney, therefore, BRD4 could be a potential therapeutic target for Cd-induced renal diseases. Cadmium RELA proto-oncogene, NF-kB subunit Rattus norvegicus
