- Environmental health perspectives
- 16 December 2002
The objectives of this study were to determine whether differences in the size and composition of coarse (2.5-10 micro m), fine (< 2.5 microm), and ultrafine (< 0.1 microm) particulate matter (PM)… Expand
Induction of Heme Oxygenase-1 Expression in Macrophages by Diesel Exhaust Particle Chemicals and Quinones via the Antioxidant-Responsive Element1
- N. Li, M. I. Venkatesan, +4 authors A. Nel
- Chemistry, Medicine
- The Journal of Immunology

Diesel exhaust particles (DEP) contain organic chemicals that contribute to the adverse health effects of inhaled particulate matter. Because DEP induce oxidative stress in the lung and in… Expand
Phylogeny of Dictyoptera: Dating the Origin of Cockroaches, Praying Mantises and Termites with Molecular Data and Controlled Fossil Evidence
- F. Legendre, A. Nel, G. Svenson, T. Robillard, R. Pellens, P. Grandcolas
- Biology, Medicine
- PloS one
- 22 July 2015
Understanding the origin and diversification of organisms requires a good phylogenetic estimate of their age and diversification rates. This estimate can be difficult to obtain when samples are… Expand
Stress-Induced Fas Ligand Expression in T Cells Is Mediated through a MEK Kinase 1-Regulated Response Element in the Fas Ligand Promoter
- M. Faris, K. Latinis, S. Kempiak, G. Koretzky, A. Nel
- Biology, Medicine
- Molecular and Cellular Biology
- 1 September 1998
ABSTRACT T lymphocytes undergo apoptosis in response to a variety of stimuli, including exposure to UV radiation and γ-irradiation. While the mechanism by which stress stimuli induce apoptosis is not… Expand
USE OF A STRATIFIED OXIDATIVE STRESS MODEL TO STUDY THE BIOLOGICAL EFFECTS OF AMBIENT CONCENTRATED AND DIESEL EXHAUST PARTICULATE MATTER

- 1 April 2002
The mechanism of heme oxygenase-1 (ho-1) gene activation by 15-deoxy-Delta(12,14)-prostaglandin J(2) (15d-PGJ(2)) was examined. 15d-PGJ(2) stimulated expression of HO-1 mRNA and protein and of a… Expand
Mesozoic chrysopid-like Planipennia: a phylogenetic approach (Insecta: Neuroptera)
- A. Nel, X. Delclòs, Arnaud Hutin
- Biology
- 1 January 2005
Abstract The Mesozoic chrysopid-like Planipennia are revised and several new genera and species are described. The new superfamily Chrysopoidea is proposed for the extant and fossil Chrysopidae, and… Expand
The c-Jun N-terminal kinase cascade plays a role in stress-induced apoptosis in Jurkat cells by up-regulating Fas ligand expression.
T lymphocytes undergo apoptosis in response to cellular stress, including UV exposure and gamma irradiation. However, the mechanism by which stress stimuli induce apoptosis is not well understood.… Expand
Inflammatory cytokines synergize with the HIV-1 Tat protein to promote angiogenesis and Kaposi's sarcoma via induction of basic fibroblast growth factor and the alpha v beta 3 integrin.
- G. Barillari, C. Sgadari, +8 authors B. Ensoli
- Biology, Medicine
- Journal of immunology
- 15 August 1999
The Tat protein of HIV-1, a transactivator of viral gene expression, is released by acutely infected T cells and, in this form, exerts angiogenic activities. These have linked the protein to the… Expand
