Journal ArticleDOI
IκB kinase (IKK)β, but not IKKα, is a critical mediator of osteoclast survival and is required for inflammation-induced bone loss
Maria Grazia Ruocco,Shin Maeda,Jin Mo Park,Toby Lawrence,Li-Chung Hsu,Yixue Cao,Georg Schett,Erwin F. Wagner,Michael Karin +8 more
TL;DR: IKKβ protects osteoclasts and their progenitors from tumor necrosis factor α–induced apoptosis, and its loss in hematopoietic cells prevents inflammation-induced bone loss.
Journal ArticleDOI
Targeting of TAK1 by the NF-κB protein Relish regulates the JNK-mediated immune response in Drosophila
Jin Mo Park,Helen Brady,Maria Grazia Ruocco,Huaiyu Sun,DeeAnn Williams,Susan J. Lee,Tomohisa Kato,Normand Richards,Kyle W. H. Chan,Frank Mercurio,Michael Karin,Steven A. Wasserman +11 more
TL;DR: It is found that the Drosophila NF-kappa B protein Relish plays a crucial role in limiting the duration of JNK activation and output in response to Gram-negative infections.
Book ChapterDOI
Control of Osteoclast Activity and Bone Loss by IKK Subunits: New Targets for Therapy
TL;DR: Recent results obtained using a genetic approach in mice that indicate the importance of IKKbeta, and not IKKalpha, as a transducer of signals from receptor activator of NF-kappaB (RANK) to NF- kappaB.
