Recent evidence presented by Jung and Dritschilo implicates the NF-kappaB and IkappaB-alpha proteins in ATM function; the ATM protein appears to phosphorylate IkB-alpha, thereby activating the transcription factor NF-kappaB. These findings would also support observations of increased radiation-induced apoptosis in cell lines derived from A-T patients.

Gel shift assays demonstrate that paclitaxel causes a marked increase in protein binding to the NF-kappaB and AP-1 consensus binding sequences in the paclitaxel-responsive ovarian cells, but not the nonresponsive cells.

TNF signal transduction is mediated by TRAF2 which binds the TNF Receptor2 (TNFR2) and activates NFkappaB.

Peg3/Pw1 is an imprinted gene involved in the TNF-NFkappaB signal transduction pathway
Frédéric Relaix1, Xiao-jun Wei2, Xiangwei Wu2 & David A. Sassoon1

Because of some the genes involved in the inflammatory response are regulated by NF-kappaB, the authors have examined the effect of salicylates on NF-kappaB activity.
