Activation of the NF-kappa B and I kappa B system in smooth muscle cells after rat arterial injury. Induction of vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1

The NF-kappa B transcription factor family and its inhibitory proteins (I kappa B) form an autoregulatory system that has been linked to endothelial gene expression and vascular disease. To determine the role of the NF-kappa B/I kappa B system in smooth muscle cells (SMCs) in vivo, the present study...
