Conditional Deletion of IκB-Kinase-β Accelerates Helicobacter-Dependent Gastric Apoptosis, Proliferation, and Preneoplasia

TL;DR: In this paper, the role of NF-κB pathway in gastric carcinogenesis and injury has not been well-defined, and a conditional knockout of IKKβ in Gastric epithelial cells (GECs) and myeloid cells, and examined responses to ionizing radiation (IR) and Helicobacter felis infection.
Journal ArticleDOI

p38α inhibits liver fibrogenesis and consequent hepatocarcinogenesis by curtailing accumulation of reactive oxygen species.

TL;DR: P38α and its target HSP25/HSP27 appear to play a conserved and critical hepatoprotective function by curtailing ROS accumulation in liver parenchymal cells engaged in oxidative metabolism of exogenous chemicals.
Journal ArticleDOI

The tumor suppressor activity of IKKα in stratified epithelia is exerted in part via the TGF-β antiproliferative pathway

TL;DR: In SCCs that are unable to shuttle IKKα to the nucleus, defective TGF-β-induced growth arrest was rescued by introduction of a constitutively nuclear IKKβ variant, and results suggest that the tumor-suppressive activity of IKK α in stratified epithelia may be exerted in part via the T GF-β signaling pathway.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Dual Role for Ikkα in Tooth Development

TL;DR: IKK alpha is a component of the I kappa B kinase (IKK) complex that plays a key role in the activation of NF-kappa B as discussed by the authors.
