Astrocyte-specific IKK2 activation in mice is sufficient to induce neuroinflammation but does not increase susceptibility to MPTP
A key regulator of inflammatory gene expression is the transcription factor NF-κB that is controlled by the IκB proteins. We used a transgenic mouse model expressing a constitutively active IκB-kinase-2 (IKK2-CA) in astrocytes under control of the human glial fibrillary acidic protein promotor (IKK2...
