Background/aim: Nuclear factor kappa B (NF-kB) signalling including the RelA subunit is activated upon fibroblast growth factor (FGF) stimulation. A clear understanding of the mechanisms underlying this action will provide insights into molecular targeting therapy. Furthermore, protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A) is involved in RelA dephosphorylation, but little is known about the underlying mechanism.
Materials And Methods: Because the regulatory subunits of PP2A drive NF-kB signalling via RelA, we used qRT-PCR and immunoblot analysis to investigate the expression of these subunits in MC3T3-E1 cells. We examined weather FGF2 interacts with NF-kB using immunocytochemistry (IC), immunoprecipitation (IP), and pull-down assay (PD) using recombinant proteins.
Results: PR55β expression was increased, whereas activated RelA was dephosphorylated upon FGF2 stimulation. Further, the interaction of PR55β with RelA was confirmed by IC, IP, and PD.
Conclusion: FGF2-induced PR55β directly interacts with RelA and regulates NF-kB signalling.

Background: Lung cancer is a life-threatening disease that occurs worldwide, but is especially common in China. The crucial role of the tumour microenvironment (TME) in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) has attracted recent attention. Cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) are the main factors that contribute to the TME function, and CAF exosomes are closely linked to NSCLC.

Ixodid ticks serve as hosts and transmission vectors for several obligate intracellular bacteria, including members of the spotted fever group (SFG) of . Although ticks generate an immune response to bacterial insults, many of the signaling molecules associated with the response and how they may contribute to vector competence for are undefined. In this study, we isolated a full-length transcript from , which encoded a Relish-type NF-κB.

Sepsis-associated acute kidney injury (S-AKI) is a prevalent and life-threatening complication in hospitalized and critically ill patients. Recent researches indicates that immunoproteasome, especially proteasome 20S subunit beta 8 (PSMB8), is highly associated with various kidney diseases. This study aims to investigate the potential involvement of PSMB8 in S-AKI and its impact on apoptosis and inflammation.

Background: High-temperature environment can cause acute kidney injury affecting renal filtration function. To study the mechanism of renal injury caused by heat stress through activates TLR4/NF-κB/NLRP3 signaling pathway by disrupting the filtration barrier in broiler chickens. The temperature of broilers in the TN group was maintained at 23 ± 1 °C, and the HS group temperature was maintained at 35 ± 1℃ from the age of 21 days, and the high temperature was 10 h per day, and one broiler from each replicate group at the age of 35 and 42 days was selected for blood sampling, respectively.

Objective: This study aimed to investigate the associations of multi-omics polygenic risk score (PRS) and rheumatoid arthritis (RA) to identify potential genes/proteins and biological pathways.
Methods: Based on multi-omics data from 48,813 participants in the INTERVAL cohort, we calculated multi-omics PRS for 13,646 mRNAs (RNASeq), 308 proteins (Olink), 2,380 proteins (SomaScan), 726 metabolites (Metabolon), and 141 metabolites (Nightingale). Using the generalized linear model, we first evaluated the associations between multi-omics PRS and RA in 58,813 UK Biobank participants.
