Germany NF-B/Rel TFs are composed of five distinct DNA-binding subunits, called p50, p52, p65/RelA, c-Rel, and Rel-B (Liou and Baltimore, 1993).

Increased levels of myocardial IκB-α protein promote tolerance to endotoxin.
Endotoxin [lipopolysaccharide (LPS)] causes tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α)-mediated myocardial contractile depression. Tolerance to the cardiac toxicity of LPS can be induced by a prior exposure to LPS or by pretreatment with glucocorticoids. The mechanisms by which the myocardium acquires tolerance to LPS remain unknown. LPS causes phosphorylation and degradation of inhibitory κB-α (IκB-α), r...
متن کاملPMS1077 Sensitizes TNF-α Induced Apoptosis in Human Prostate Cancer Cells by Blocking NF-κB Signaling Pathway
Our previous studies have demonstrated that PMS1077, a platelet-activating factor (PAF) antagonist, could induce apoptosis of Raji cells. However, the mechanism of action has not yet been determined. The nuclear transcription factor-kappa B (NF-κB) signaling pathway plays a critical role in tumor cell survival, proliferation, invasion, metastasis, and angiogenesis, so we determined the effects ...
متن کاملLapatinib inhibits the activation of NF-κB through reducing phosphorylation of IκB-α in breast cancer cells.
Lapatinib is highly active against breast cancer with HER2 overexpression in preclinical and clinical settings. Constitutive activation of NF-κB is linked to proliferation and apoptosis in breast cancer cells. NF-κB can be activated by HER2 in breast cancer cells. However, the effect of lapatinib on NF-κB activity is not completely clear. In this ...
متن کاملEffects of Acetaldehyde and Tnfα on the Inhibitory Kappa B- Α Protein and Nuclear Factor Kappa B Activation in Hepatic Stellate Cells
Aims: Increased plasma tumour necrosis α (TNFα) and elevated monocyte nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) are associated with liver injury and inflammation in models of alcoholic liver disease and are found to be elevated in monocytes of patients with alcoholic hepatitis. Acetaldehyde enhances, whereas TNFα inhibits, transcription of the type I collagen promoters and type I collagen production. NF-κ...
متن کاملSelinexor, a Selective Inhibitor of Nuclear Export (SINE) compound, acts through NF-κB deactivation and combines with proteasome inhibitors to synergistically induce tumor cell death
The nuclear export protein, exportin-1 (XPO1/CRM1), is overexpressed in many cancers and correlates with poor prognosis. Selinexor, a first-in-class Selective Inhibitor of Nuclear Export (SINE) compound, binds covalently to XPO1 and blocks its function. Treatment of cancer cells with selinexor results in nuclear retention of major tumor suppressor proteins and cell cycle regulators, leading to ...
متن کاملHuman immunodeficiency virus-1 Tat activates NF-κB via physical interaction with IκB-α and p65
Nuclear factor (NF)-κB is a master regulator of pro-inflammatory genes and is upregulated in human immunodeficiency virus 1 (HIV-1) infection. Mechanisms underlying the NF-κB deregulation by HIV-1 are relevant for immune dysfunction in AIDS. We report that in single round HIV-1 infection, or single-pulse PMA stimulation, the HIV-1 Tat transactivator activated NF-κB by hijacking the inhibitor Iκ...
