BIRC2 and BIRC3 Regulation in Pulmonary Epithelium
2026-09-02
The reference study distinguishes how inflammatory cytokines and glucocorticoids regulate the anti-apoptotic signaling genes BIRC2 and BIRC3 in pulmonary epithelial models. Its findings position constitutive BIRC2 as a rapid signaling component, while inducible BIRC3 may provide later and glucocorticoid-resilient protection during airway inflammation.
