Adenosine is a growth factor for osteoblasts and osteoclasts, so the CD39/CD73 adenosine pathway is also particularly important for the pathogenesis of MM. The prevalence of CD39-Treg cells was observed in MM, which was speculated to be related to the production of IL-17 and the progression...
DPP4 also plays a role in immune regulation by activating T cells, upregulating CD86 expression and the NF-kB pathway, chemotaxis modulation, cell adhesion, and apoptosis [89]. Its expression is higher in visceral adipose than subcutaneous tissue, and directly correlates with adipocyte inflammation ...
These suggest that the serum level of OPN can not only reflect the bone metabolism level, but evaluate the severity of the disease and even the mortality in CIPs. The development of osteoporosis is closely related to the dysfunction of three pathways: the estrogen–endocrine pathway, the Wnt/...
Studies have found that UC-MSCs genes related to cell proliferation (EGF), PI3K-NFkB signaling pathway (TEK), and neurogenesis (RTN1,NPPB, andNRP2) were upregulated (increase in the number of receptors) in UC-MSCs compared to in BM-MSCs. (15) ...
•GHK, at 1 nanomolar, reset theprogrammed cell deathsystem in human cancer cells (human neuroblastoma, leukemia, and breast cancer) but did not affect healthy cells •GHK-copper plus ascorbic acid suppressed a sarcoma in mice •GHK inhibited NFKB p65 which is believed to promote cancer ...
In addition, evidence is discussed concerning the interaction of ubiquitin and melatonin in activation of the transcription factor NF-κB as well as modulating cellular levels of numerous signal transducing factors including the tumor suppressor, p53. Some of the actions of melatonin on the regulatory...
The mosquito immune system is involved in pathogen-elicited defense responses. The NF-kB factors REL1 and REL2 are downstream transcription activators of Toll and IMD immune pathways, respectively. We have used genome-wide microarray analyses to characterize fat-body-specific gene transcript ...

Some nonpathogenic enteric bacteria have been shown to have an immunosuppressive effect on intestinal epithelial cells by directly inhibiting the NF-κB pathway (70). Others inhibit the same pathway by promoting the nuclear export of an NF-κB subunit, thus limiting the duration of NF-κB ...
U95 binds to NF-kB, altering the pathway, and U14 and ORF-1 bind and inactivate p53 [30]. These interactions likely contribute to the oncogenic transformation of infected host cells. Overall, although the results of studies showing the presence of serum antibodies to HHV-6 or viral DNA ...
