About Enhancer

Enhancer ID: E_01_0549
Species: human
Position : chr11:1155170-1157170
Biosample name:
Experiment class : High+Lowthroughput
Enhancer type: Enhancer
Disease: Allergic and inflammatory airway disease
Pubmed ID:  29644902
Enhancer experiment: RT-PCR,Real-Time PCR,Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay(ELISA),Western Blot,Cell Transfection with siRNA,Immunofluorescence Staining,
Enhancer experiment description: IL-36 gamma induced MUC5AC expression and activated the phosphorylation of extracellular signal regulated kinase (ERK) 1 and 2, p38, and nuclear factor-kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells (NF-kappa B). IL-36 receptor antagonist significantly attenuated these effects. The specific inhibitor and siRNA of ERK1, ERK2, p38, and NF-kappa B significantly attenuated IL-36 gamma induced MUC5AC expression.These results indicated that IL-36 gamma induced MUC5AC expression via the IL-36 receptor-mediated ERK1/2 and p38/NF-kappa B pathway in human airway epithelial cells.
