additional information | gene disruption via homologous recombination reveals that activation of NF-kappaB in response to pathogen associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) and pro-inflammatory cytokines is dependent on IKKgamma/NEMO and on IKKbeta | Mus musculus |
additional information | gene disruption via homologous recombination reveals that IKKalpha, but not IKKbeta, kinase activity is required for activation of an alternative NF-kappaB signaling pathway based on processing of NF-kappaB2/p100:RelB complexes to NF-kappaB2/p52:RelB dimers. In addition, IKKalpha, and not IKKbeta, is required for differentiation of stratified epithelia, such as the epidermis, but this function does not require its protein kinase activity | Mus musculus |
additional information | Ikkalpha knockin mice are generated in which the two serine phosphoacceptor sites responsible for kinase activation are replaced with alanines. These mice express normal amounts of an IKKalpha protein whose kinase activity cannot be turned on in response to upstream stimuli. TRAMP mice, a mouse model for prostate carcinoma, that are rendered homozygous for the Ikkalpha knockin mutation are found to exhibit decelerated tumor development but eventually all died of primary prostate carcinoma. Knockin mice are found to display much fewer secondary site metastases than wild-type/TRAMP mice, indicating that IKK alpha is an enhancer for prostate metastasis | Mus musculus |
additional information | mice lacking the IKKbeta gene in hepatocytes surprisingly show many more and faster growing chemically-induced hepatocellular carcinoma, indicating that in hepatocytes IKKbeta inhibits chemically-induced hepatocellular carcinoma | Mus musculus |
additional information | targeted gene disruption of IKKbeta in intestinal epithelial cells leads to a 80% decline of colitis-associated cancer (CAC) induced by azoxymethane or dextran sulfate sodium salt administration | Mus musculus |
additional information | targeted gene disruption of IKKbeta in mature macrophages and neutrophils leads to a 50% decrease of tumor multiplicity of colitis-associated cancer (CAC) induced by azoxymethane or dextran sulfate sodium salt administration | Mus musculus |
