Figure 7From: Tumor necrosis factor α triggers proliferation of adult neural stem cells via IKK/NF-κB signalingNF-κB activation is responsible for TNF-induced NSC proliferation. Note that NF-κB activation is also necessary for the proliferation of NSCs under control conditions (compare mock-transfected control versus IκB transfected cells). Transfected cells without IκB expression vector were stimulated with TNF. Induction of proliferation by TNF is significantly abrogated by IκB co-transfection (***P < 0.001).Back to article page
