Modulation of proliferation, apoptosis and inflammation of Caco-2 epithelial cells and THP-1 macrophage-like monocytes in LPS stimulated co-culture model

Background and objectives null Epithelial cells and macrophages play major roles in modulating the state of inlammatory response regulated by intracellular signaling pathways. The aim of this study was to characterize changes in cell proliferation, apoptosis and inflammation related intracellular signalling pathways MAPKs and NF-κB in Caco-2 epithelial cells and THP-1 macrophage-like monocytes contacted and filter-seperated co-cultures in the...
