Diphenyleneiodonium inhibits NF-κB activation and iNOS expression induced by IL-1β: involvement of reactive oxygen species
Aims: In this work, we studied the mechanisms by which diphenyleneiodonium chloride (DPI) inhibits nitric oxide (NO) synthesis induced by the pro-inflammatory cytokine interleukin-1β (IL-1) in bovine articular chondrocytes. To achieve this, we evaluated the ability of DPI to inhibit the expression a...
