NF-κB and Human Cancer: What Have We Learned over the Past 35 Years?
Transcription factor NF-κB has been extensively studied for its varied roles in cancer development since its initial characterization as a potent retroviral oncogene. It is now clear that NF-κB also plays a major role in a large variety of human cancers,

IKKα regulation of canonical NF-κB activation downstream of Nod1-mediated peptidoglycan recognition : "and" Endocytosis-independent function of clathrin heavy chain in the control of basal NF-κB activation [PDF]
NF-κB is a transcription factor involved in the regulation of inflammation and innate immunity. The IκB kinase (IKK) complex contains two catalytic subunits, IKKα and IKKβ, and plays an essential role in the activation of NF-κB through the ...

Understanding NF‐κB signaling via mathematical modeling
Mammalian inflammatory signaling, for which NF‐κB is a principal transcription factor, is an exquisite example of how cellular signaling pathways can be regulated to produce different yet specific responses to different inflammatory insults. Mathematical

Nuclear factor-kappa B inhibition can enhance apoptosis of differentiated thyroid cancer cells induced by 131I. [PDF]
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate changes of nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) during radioiodine 131 ((131)I) therapy and whether NF-κB inhibition could enhance (131)I-induced apoptosis in differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) cells in a synergistic manner.

Phosphorylation of the Regulators, a Complex Facet of NF-κB Signaling in Cancer
The nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) is a ubiquitous transcription factor central to inflammation and various malignant diseases in humans. The regulation of NF-κB can be influenced by a myriad of post-translational modifications (PTMs), including ...

The Neutrophil Gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL), a NF-kB regulated gene, is a survival factor for thyroid neoplastic cells [PDF]
NF-κB is constitutively activated in primary human thyroid tumors, particularly in those of anaplastic type. The inhibition of NF-κB activity in the human anaplastic thyroid carcinoma cell line, FRO, leads to an increased susceptibility to ...

Bridelia ferruginea Produces Anti-neuroinflammatory Activity through Inhibition of Nuclear Factor-kappa B and p38 MAPK Signalling [PDF]
Bridelia ferruginea is commonly used in traditional African medicine (TAM) for treating various inflammatory conditions. Extracts from the plant have been shown to exhibit anti-inflammatory property in a number of in vivo models.

The Regulation of NF-κB Subunits by Phosphorylation
The NF-κB transcription factor is the master regulator of the inflammatory response and is essential for the homeostasis of the immune system. NF-κB regulates the transcription of genes that control inflammation, immune cell development, cell cycle ...
