Abstract

The procurement and management of nutrients and ability to fight infections are fundamental requirements for survival. These defense responses are bioenergetically costly, requiring the immune system to balance protection against pathogens with the need to maintain metabolic homeostasis. NF-κB transcription factors are central regulators of immunity and inflammation. Over the last two decades, these factors have emerged as a pivotal node coordinating the immune and metabolic systems in physiology and the etiopathogenesis of major threats to human health, including cancer, autoimmunity, chronic inflammation, and others. In this review, we discuss recent advances in understanding how NF-κB-dependent metabolic programs control inflammation, metabolism, and immunity and how improved knowledge of them may lead to better diagnostics and therapeutics for widespread human diseases.

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • NF-κB is activated by various stimuli, including TLR4 ligands and cytokines such as CD40, TNF-α, IL-1β, and BAFF within the bone marrow microenvironment.

    “NF-κB is activated by various stimuli, including Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) ligands and cytokines such as CD40, TNF-α, IL-1β, and B-cell activating factor (BAFF) within the bone marrow microenvironment.”

  • NF-κB is a pivotal transcription factor implicated in MM pathogenesis, particularly in the bone marrow microenvironment.

  • NF-κB signaling is categorized into canonical and non-canonical pathways; the canonical pathway involves p50-RelA complexes regulated by IKKα, β, and γ, while the non-canonical pathway involves p52-RelB complexes regulated by IKKα.

    “NF-κB signaling is categorized into canonical and non-canonical pathways. In the canonical pathway, NF-κB1 (p50)-RelA (p65) complexes are activated and regulated by a trimeric complex consisting of IκB kinases (IKK) α, β, and γ. Conversely, the non-canonical pathway involves NF-κB2 (p52)-RelB complexes, regulated by a dimeric complex of IKKα [136, 137] (Fig. 1).”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
