Context-Dependent Regulation of Autophagy by IKK-NF-κB Signaling: Impact on the Aging Process
1 Jan 2012
Abstract excerpt
The NF-κB signaling system and the autophagic degradation pathway are crucial cellular survival mechanisms, both being well conserved during evolution. Emerging studies have indicated that the IKK/NF-κB signaling axis regulates autophagy in a context-dependent manner. IKK complex and NF-κB can enhance the expression of Beclin 1 and other autophagy-related proteins and stimulate autophagy whereas as a feedback...
