abstract：:Reactive oxygen species (ROS) have been indicated as important signal mediators for many cell surface receptors. We previously demonstrated that ROS are generated by cross-linking surface receptor CD40 and consequently induce c-Jun N-terminal kinase activation and interleukin-6 secretion in murine B cells. In this stu...
