Taeyun Kim, Yunsuk Choi, Je-Hwan Lee, Silvia Park, Jae-Sook Ahn, Joon-Ho Moon, Ho-Jin Shin, Won Sik Lee, Dajung Kim, Ho Sup Lee
Korean J Intern Med. 2020;35(2):429-437. Published online January 10, 2019
Background/Aims: Rabbit anti-thymocyte globulin (ATG) is usually incorporated in hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) to reduce the incidence of graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). This study aimed to find optimal ATG doses in patients undergoing human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-mismatched allo..

Neutrophil Elastase Causes MUC5AC Mucin Synthesis Via EGF Receptor, ERK and NF-kB Pathways in A549 Cells
Jeong-Sup Song, Kyung-Sook Cho, Hyung-Kyu Yoon, Hwa-Sik Moon, Sung-Hak Park
Korean J Intern Med. 2005;20(4):275-283. Published online December 31, 2005
BackgroundNeutrophil elastase (NE) was found to increase the respiratory mucin gene, MUC5AC, although the molecular mechanisms of this process remain unknown. We attempted to determine the signal transduction pathway through which NE induces MUC5AC gene expression in bronchial..
