• Physiologically they produce many of the same proinflammatory responses, including fever, sleep and anorexia, mobilization and activation of polymo ⁇ honuclear leukocytes, induction of cyclooxygenase and hpoxygenase enzymes, increase in adhesion molecule expression, activation of B-cells, T-cells and natural killer cells, and stimulation of production of other cytokines.
• Other actions include a contribution to the tissue degeneration seen in chronic inflammatory conditions, such as stimulation of fibroblast proliferation, induction of collagenase, etc. They have also been implicated in the process of bone resorption and adipose tissue regulation.
• cytokines play key roles in a large number of pathological conditions, including rheumatoid arthritis, septic shock, inflammatory bowel disease, bone mass loss, cancer, dermal sensitization disorders, diabetes, obesity and neurological conditions such as ischemic stroke, closed-head injuries, etc.
• Cytokines trigger a variety of changes in gene expression in their target cells by binding and activating their respective cognate receptors. Receptor activation sets in motion certain biochemical events, including the activation of otherwise latent transcription factors. Members of the NF- ⁇ B Rel family of transcription factors represent some of the most prominent of these transcription factors, having been implicated in the regulation of genes involved in inflammation, cell proliferation, apoptosis, and several other basic cellular functions (Nerma et al. Genes Dev. 9, 2723 (1995); Baichwal & Baeuerle, Curr. Biol 7, 94 (1997)).
• NF- ⁇ B The best studied member of this family of transcription factors is ⁇ F- ⁇ B, which generally exists in cells as a heterodimer of two proteins: p50 (NF- ⁇ Bl) and p65 (Re A), although homodimers of these individual components are also possible (Baeuerle and Baltimore, Cell, 53, 211 (1988); Baeuerle and Henkel, Annu. Rev. Immunol 12, 141 (1994)).
• NF- ⁇ B in its inactive form, resides in the cytoplasm of cells.
• cytokines e.g., TNF and IL-1
• UV irradiation and viral infection e.g., UV irradiation and viral infection
• ⁇ F- ⁇ B migrates to the nucleus.
• the NF- ⁇ B heterodimer In its inactive state, the NF- ⁇ B heterodimer is held in the cytoplasm by association with inhibitory I ⁇ B proteins.
• the three-dimensional structure of a NF- ⁇ B/I ⁇ B ternary complex has been solved (Huxford et al Cell, 95, 759 (1998); Jacobs et al Cell, 95, 749 (1998)).
• I ⁇ B proteins When cells are treated with the appropriate stimuli, such as IL-1 or TNF, intracellular signal transduction pathways are activated that lead to the eventual phosphorylation of I ⁇ B proteins on two specific residues (serines 32 and 36 in I ⁇ B ⁇ , serines 19 and 23 in I ⁇ B ⁇ ). Mutation of one or both serine residues renders I ⁇ B resistant to cytokine- induced phosphorylation. This signal-induced phosphorylation targets I ⁇ B for ubiquitination and proteosome-mediated degradation, allowing nuclear translocation of NF- B (Thanos and Maniatis, Cell, 80, 529 (1995)). The only regulated step in the I ⁇ B degradation pathway is the phosphorylation of I ⁇ B by DcB kinases (IKK) (Yaron et al EMBO J. 16, 6486 (1997)).
• IKK DcB kinases
• IKK ⁇ or IKK-1
• IKK ⁇ or IKK-2
• IKK ⁇ or IKK-2
• IKK-gamma or NEMO NF- ⁇ B- Essential Modulator
• NEMO NF- ⁇ B- Essential Modulator
• IKK ⁇ and IKK ⁇ are the most likely mediators of TNF- and BL- 1 -induced I ⁇ B phosphorylation and degradation, which results in NF- ⁇ B activation and upregulation of families of genes involved in inflammatory processes (Woronicz et al. Science (1997); Karin, Oncogene 18, 6867 (1999); Karin, J. Biol. Chem. 274, 27339 (1999)). These kinases have also been identified as components of CD40 ligand-induced signaling. IKK ⁇ and IKK ⁇ have very similar primary structures, displaying more than 50% overall sequence identity. In the kinase domain, their sequences are 65% identical.
