    regulates genes involved in immune and inflammatory responses

    The NF-κB pathway, short for Nuclear Factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells pathway, is a critical signaling mechanism in cells that regulates the expression of genes involved in immune and inflammatory responses. When activated, it can lead to the production of proteins that help fight infections and repair tissue damage, but its chronic activation is also linked to various diseases, including cancer and autoimmune disorders.
