Overview of Gene Research
Ikbkb, also known as IKKβ (IkappaB kinase beta) or IKK2, is a key molecule in the signaling pathway to the transcription factor NF-κB. Its kinase activity phosphorylates IkappaB molecules, leading to their ubiquitination and proteasomal degradation, and subsequent release and activation of NF-κB. NF-κB has diverse functions in regulating the immune system, cellular differentiation, survival, and proliferation, making Ikbkb crucial in biological processes [8].
In Huntington's disease, Ikbkb can phosphorylate serine 13 of huntingtin via a non-canonical interferon regulatory factor3-mediated IKK pathway, reducing mutant huntingtin aggregation [1]. A heterozygous gain-of-function (GOF) Ikbkb variant in a male infant was associated with autoimmunity and autoinflammation [2]. In spinal nerve ligation (SNL) rats, delivering Ikbkb small interfering RNA (siRNA)-encapsulated poly (lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) nanoparticles reduced neuropathic pain by inhibiting microglial activation [3]. In hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), IKKβ phosphorylated and stabilized USP30, promoting lipogenesis and tumorigenesis [4]. In clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC), upregulated Ikbkb protein expression was related to higher nuclear grade tumors and shorter patient survival [5]. In gliomagenesis, α-ketoglutarate produced by GDH1 binds to and activates IKKβ, promoting glucose uptake and tumor cell survival [6]. In osteoarthritis, decreased miR-214-3p activated the NF-κB pathway by targeting Ikbkb, aggravating disease progression [7]. A gain-of-function Ikbkb mutation in humans caused combined immune deficiency, and a mouse model with the orthologous codon change showed similar cellular and biochemical phenotypes [9].
In summary, Ikbkb is essential in the NF-κB signaling pathway, influencing multiple biological processes and disease conditions. Studies using gene-based models, such as the mouse model with a gain-of-function Ikbkb mutation, have revealed its role in diseases like Huntington's disease, autoimmunity, neuropathic pain, cancer, and osteoarthritis, providing insights into disease mechanisms and potential therapeutic targets.
