Nucleocapsid protein of SARS-CoV activates interleukin-6 expression through cellular transcription factor NF-κB

High levels of interleukin-6 (IL-6) in the acute stage associated with lung lesions were found in SARS patients. To evaluate the mechanisms behind this event, we investigated the roles of SARS-CoV proteins in the regulation of IL-6. Results showed that the viral nucleocapsid (N) protein activated IL...
