Regulation of NF-κB activity through lysine monomethylation of p65 [PDF]
NF-κB is a key activator of inflammatory and immune responses with important pathological roles in cancer, heart disease, and autoimmune diseases. Transcriptional activity of NF-κB is regulated by different posttranslational modifications. Here, we report a novel mechanism of NF-κB regulation through lysine monomethylation by SET9 methyltransferase ...

TLR7, TLR9, MyD88, and NF-κB role on platelet aggregation in Yucatecan patients with type 2 diabetes
Objective: To analyze the expression of TLR7, TLR9, and signaling proteins MyD88 and NF-κB, and their relationship with platelet aggregation in Yucatecan patients with type 2 diabetes. Material and methods: Platelet aggregation was determined by light transmission and protein expression by flow cytometry in 31 patients and 29 controls from Yucatan ...

NF-kappaB is a transcription factor that is critical for innate and adaptive immunity. Recently, a noncanonical pathway for NF-kappaB activation has emerged. Four recent papers provide physiological roles for this pathway and expand our understanding of lymphoid development and organogenesis with potential applications in the treatment of autoimmune ...

Regulation of NF-κB by PML and PML-RARα [PDF]
Promyelocytic Leukemia (PML) is a nuclear protein that forms sub-nuclear structures termed nuclear bodies associated with transcriptionally active genomic regions. PML is a tumour suppressor and regulator of cell differentiation.

NF-κB signaling regulates myelination in the CNS [PDF]
Besides myelination of neuronal axons by oligodendrocytes to facilitate propagation of action potentials, oligodendrocytes also support axon survival and function. A key transcription factor involved in these processes is nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB), a hetero or homodimer of the Rel family of proteins, including p65, c-Rel, RelB, p50, and p52.

Hypoxia activates IKK-NF-κB and the immune response in Drosophila melanogaster [PDF]
Hypoxia, or low oxygen availability, is an important physiological and pathological stimulus for multicellular organisms. Molecularly, hypoxia activates a transcriptional programme directed at restoration of oxygen homoeostasis and cellular survival.

Neurotropin suppresses inflammatory cytokine expression and cell death through suppression of NF-κB and JNK in hepatocytes. [PDF]
Inflammatory response and cell death in hepatocytes are hallmarks of chronic liver disease, and, therefore, can be effective therapeutic targets. Neurotropin® (NTP) is a drug widely used in Japan and China to treat chronic pain.

Parthenolide attenuates LPS-induced activation of NF-κB in a time-dependent manner in rat myocardium. [PDF]
Parthenolide (PTN), a selective nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) inhibitor, has been used extensively to inhibit NF-κB activation. The duration of the inhibitory effect of PTN on NF-κB in vivo remains unclear.
