Function of Nuclear Factor Kappa B (NF-kB) in Human Diseases-A Review

2016-10-01

Abstract excerpt

Nuclear factor kappa B (NFkB) is a transcription factor that resides in the cytoplasm of every cell and translocates to the nucleus when activated. Its activation is induced by a wide variety of agents including stress, cigarette smoke, viruses, bacteria, inflammatory stimuli, cytokines, free radicals, carcinogens, tumor promoters and endotoxins. On activation, NFkB regulates the expression of almost 400 different...
