4B) markedly induced Rel A, the transcriptionally active subunit of NF-κB.
Our findings suggest that RSV induction of chemokine gene expression involves a redox-sensitive NF-κB signaling mechanism that differs from that mediated by TNFα and involving predominantly the Rel A subunit of NF-κB.
Toll and Tube are members of a signal transduction pathway that activates the Rel transcription factor Dorsal and is involved in developmental patterning and in the adult immune response.
4, Rel A and p50 subunits of NF-κB are differentially expressed and induced in A549 epithelial cells.
NAC is an antioxidant thiol that raises the intracellular pool of glutathione the major redox regulating mechanism in the A549 epithelial cell line [ 45 ] . Interestingly, it has been reported that NAC can have differential effects on NF-κB binding activity suggesting only a subset of NF-κB binding complexes are redox sensitive [ 58 ] . Moreover, it has been shown that NAC inhibits Rel A/p50 heterodimers but not p50 homodimers and can inhibit NF-κB binding to only certain variant κB elements which presumably interact with distinct redox sensitive NF-κB binding complexes [ 59 ] . These observations are consistent with our findings that indicate NAC predominantly inhibits Rel A homodimers since that was the major NF-κB subunit induced by RSV infection of A549 cells.
