Resistance to endotoxic shock as a consequence of defective NF‐κB activation in poly (ADP‐ribose) polymerase‐1 deficient mice
Introduction
Results
PARP‐1‐deficient cells are more sensitive to cytotoxicity induced by TNF‐α and are defective in NF‐κB activation
IκBα proteolysis and NF‐κB/p65 nuclear translocation are not affected in PARP‐1−/− cells
PARP‐1‐deficient mice are resistant to endotoxic shock induced by LPS
LPS‐induced synthesis of inflammatory mediators
Vascular reactivity during endotoxic shock
Discussion
Functional association between PARP‐1 and NF‐κB
Resistance of PARP‐1−/− mice to endotoxic shock
Role of PARP‐1 in the inflammatory response
Materials and methods
Cell culture and transient transfection
Endotoxic shock
Electrophoretic mobility shift assays (EMSAs)
Western blot analysis
Indirect immunofluorescence labelling
Contraction experiments
