IL-1 beta-dependent CFTR expression

Interleukin 1 (IL-1 beta) stimulates expression of the Cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) via Nuclear factors of kappa light polypeptide in B-cells (NF-kB). The exact signaling leading to CFTR expression is unknown. The basic pathway of NF-kB activation by IL-1 beta is mediated by TNF receptor-associated factor 6 (TRAF6). IL-1 binds to Interleukin 1 receptor type I (IL-1RI) and activates transcription factors via cytoplasmic mediators such as myeloid differentiation primary response gene (MyD88), IL-1 receptor-associated kinase (IRAK) and TRAF6 [1], [2]. These intracellular processes result in recruitment and activation of I kappa B kinases complex (IKK). IKK phosphorylates NF-KB inhibitor (I-KB) and thereby marks it for degradation, consequently leading to increase in DNA-binding activity of the NF-kB [3] that directly activates transcription of CFTR [4], [5].
