A new p65 isoform that bind the glucocorticoid hormone and is expressed in inflammation liver diseases and COVID-19
Abstract Inflammation is a physiological process whose deregulation causes some diseases including cancer. Nuclear Factor kB (NF-kB) is a family of ubiquitous and inducible transcription factors, in which the p65/p50 heterodimer is the most abundant complex, that play critical roles mainly in inflam...
