Abstract excerpt
NF-kappaB-inducing kinase (NIK) is responsible for activation of the non-canonical p100 processing pathway of NF-kappaB activation. This kinase has been shown to be critical for activation of this pathway after signaling through several TNF family members including CD40. The functional importance of this pathway in CD40 and TLR-induced dendritic cell (DC) differentiation was studied in vivo in the alymphoplasia...
