Abstract excerpt
NF-kappaB activity is induced by cytokines, stress, and pathogens. IKK1 and IKK2 are critical IkappaB kinases in NF-kappaB activation. In this study mice lacking IKK1 and IKK2 died at E12. Additional defect in neurulation associated with enhanced apoptosis in the neuroepithelium was also observed. MEF cells from IKK1(-/-)/IKK2(-/-) embryos did not respond to NF-kappaB inducers. Upon crossing with kappaB-lacZ...
