Abstract
The transcription factor nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-kappaB) is a key component in the onset of inflammation. We describe here a series of 4-hydroxyphenyl sulfonamide estrogen receptor (ER) ligands that selectively inhibit NK-kappaB transcriptional activity but are devoid of conventional estrogenic activity.
