The signal transduction pathway that mediates interleukin-1 B(beta) effect on the activity and protein expression of the NA+-K+ ATPase in intestinal and kidney cells - by Rana Mahmoud Al-Sadi
Abstract
Interleukin 1-Beta was reported to cause diarrhea and natriuresis. Since electrolytes' and consequently water movements in colon and kidney cells are geared by the Na+ gradient created by the Na+-K+ ATPase, the pump may be a direct target site of action--
