CBP CREB binding protein.
It is possible that NF-κB and CREB mediate the early phases of neutrophil activation, while C/EBP proteins function to maintain this response [ 50 ] . The observation that the temporal pattern of expression of activated C/EBP and PKB-α are similar suggests co-ordinated regulation of these proteins [ 51 ] . A decrease in activation of transcription factors like NF-κB and CREB and an increase in C/EBP may also contribute to reduced activity of pro-apoptotic genes, resulting in prolonged longevity of neutrophils in the lung vasculature.
Binding reactions were carried out at room temperature for 30 min in a total volume of 15 μl and contained 2-5 μg of nuclear extracts, 5 μl of 5X gel shift binding buffer (20% glycerol, 5 mM MgCl 2 , 2.5 mM EDTA, 2.5 mM DTT, 250 mM NaCl, 50 mM Tris-HCl, pH 7.5), 2 μg poly (dI-dC) and 3 × 10 4cpm/μl of [ 32P] labeled CREB (5'-AGA GAT TGC CTG ACG TCA GAG AGC TAG-3'), NF-κB (5'-AGT TGA GGG GAC TTT CCC AGG C-3') (Promega Gel Shift Assay Systems, Madison, WI, USA) or CCAAT/enhancer binding protein (C/EBP) (5'-TGC AGA TTG CGC AAT CTG CA-3') (Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Inc., Santa Cruz, CA, USA) oligonucleotides.
NF-κB, CREB and C/EBP are transcription factors known to be important in regulating the expression of various genes controlling apoptosis and inflammatory mediator production including Mcl-1, COX-2 and TNF-α [ 20 21 ] , and these were next examined.
For supershift reactions, extracts were incubated with antibodies (1 μg) to NF-κB subunits (p50 or p65), CREB, phospho-CREB, C/EBP-β or C/EBP-δ for 20 min on ice prior to the addition of labeled oligonucleotide.
