Similarly, induction of IL-8 and ICAM-1 transcription in A549-moDC-co-cultures was decidedly stronger than in an aspergillosis bilayer model (Morton et al., 2014), indicative of a more robust induction of pro-inflammatory cascades including the NF-κB pathway (Melotti et al., 2001). The gene discussed is CXCL8; the disease is aspergillosis.
