Orthopedic implant particle-induced tumor necrosis factor-alpha production in macrophage-monocyte lineage cells is mediated by nuclear factor of activated T cells.

abstract：:Like many other transcription factors, the tumor suppressor protein p53 is bound to the nuclear matrix (NM). To study the interaction of p53 with the NM in more detail, we used alkaline and acidic extractions of NM proteins. It was found that there are two forms of p53, alkali- and acid-soluble, in NM of HEK293 cells ...
