On the origin of the neutral hydrogen supershells: the ionized progenitors and the limitations of the multiple supernovae hypothesis [PDF]

, 2008
Here we address the question whether the ionized shells associated with giant HII regions can be progenitors of the larger HI shell-like objects found in the Milky Way and other spiral and dwarf irregular galaxies.

RelA/p65 Regulation of IκBβ [PDF]

Molecular and Cellular Biology, 2005
IκB inhibitor proteins are the primary regulators of NF-κB. In contrast to the defined regulatory interplay between NF-κB and IκBα, much less is known regarding the regulation of IκBβ by NF-κB. Here, we describe in detail the regulation of IκBβ by RelA/p65.

NF-κB Is a Potential Therapeutic Target for Histone Deacetylase Inhibitor-Resistant Cutaneous T-Cell Lymphoma. [PDF]

Cancer Sci
We identified a novel mechanism of resistance to histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACi) in cutaneous T‐cell lymphoma (CTCL), mediated by NF‐κB activation. This finding highlights NF‐κB as a potential therapeutic target for overcoming HDACi resistance in CTCL.
