The role of NF-κB and AhR transcription factors in lead-induced lung toxicity in human lung cancer A549 cells. by Attafi, Ibraheem M

“…Pb treatment induced oxidative stress by a) increasing the formation of reactive oxygen species and b) decreasing GSTA1 mRNA levels. The toxic effects of Pb on the lung was associated with significant increases in NF-κB and AhR levels which was accompanied with increases in downstream targets genes, iNOS and CYP1A1, respectively. …”
