Abstract
The UBXD family is a diverse group of UBX (ubiquitin-regulatory X) domain-containing proteins in mammalian cells. Members of this family contain a UBX domain typically located at the carboxyl-terminal of the protein. In contrast to the UBX domain shared by all members of UBXD family, the amino-terminal domains are diverse and appear to carry out different roles in a subcellular localization-dependent manner. UBXD proteins are principally associated with the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), where they positively or negatively regulate the ER-associated degradation machinery (ERAD). The distinct protein interaction networks of UBXD proteins allow them to have specific functions independent of the ERAD pathway in a cell type- and tissue context-dependent manner. Recent reports have illustrated that a number of mammalian members of the UBXD family play critical roles in several proliferation and apoptosis pathways dysregulated in selected types of cancer. This review covers recent advances that elucidate the therapeutic potential of selected members of the UBXD family that can contribute to tumor growth.

Abstract
Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) is causally linked to several human cancers, including Kaposi's sarcoma, primary effusion lymphoma and multicentric Castleman's disease, malignancies commonly found in HIV-infected patients. While KSHV encodes diverse functional products, its mechanism of oncogenesis remains unknown. In this study, we determined the roles KSHV microRNAs (miRs) in cellular transformation and tumorigenesis using a recently developed KSHV-induced cellular transformation system of primary rat mesenchymal precursor cells. A mutant with a cluster of 10 precursor miRs (pre-miRs) deleted failed to transform primary cells, and instead, caused cell cycle arrest and apoptosis. Remarkably, the oncogenicity of the mutant virus was fully restored by genetic complementation with the miR cluster or several individual pre-miRs, which rescued cell cycle progression and inhibited apoptosis in part by redundantly targeting IκBα and the NF-κB pathway. Genomic analysis identified common targets of KSHV miRs in diverse pathways with several cancer-related pathways preferentially targeted. These works define for the first time an essential viral determinant for KSHV-induced oncogenesis and identify NF-κB as a critical pathway targeted by the viral miRs. Our results illustrate a common theme of shared functions with hierarchical order among the KSHV miRs. Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) is the causal agent of several human cancers. KSHV encodes over two dozen genes that regulate diverse cellular pathways. However, the molecular mechanism of KSHV-induced oncogenesis remains unknown. In this study, we determined the roles of KSHV microRNAs (miRs) in KSHV-induced oncogenesis using a recently developed KSHV cellular transformation system of primary rat mesenchymal precursor cells. A KSHV mutant with a cluster of 10 precursor miRs (pre-miRs) deleted failed to transform primary cells, and instead, caused cell cycle arrest and apoptosis. Expression of the miR cluster or several pre-miRs was sufficient to restore the oncogenicity of the mutant virus. KSHV miRs regulated cell cycle progression and inhibited apoptosis in part by redundantly targeting IκBα and the NF-κB pathway. By integrating gene expression profiling and target prediction, we identified common targets of KSHV miRs in diverse pathways. Importantly, several cancer-related pathways were preferentially targeted by KSHV miRs. These works have demonstrated for the first time the important roles of KSHV miRs in oncogenesis and identified NF-κB as a critical pathway targeted by the miRs. Our results reveal that shared function is a common theme of KSHV miRs, which manifest functional hierarchical order.

Abstract
The nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-kappaB) signalling pathway serves a crucial role in regulating the transcriptional responses of physiological processes that include cell division, cell survival, differentiation, immunity and inflammation. Here we outline studies using mouse models in which the core components of the NF-kappaB pathway, namely the IkappaB kinase subunits (IKKalpha, IKKbeta and NEMO), the IkappaB proteins (IkappaBalpha, IkappaBbeta, IkappaBvarepsilon and Bcl-3) and the five NF-kappaB transcription factors (NF-kappaB1, NF-kappaB2, c-Rel, RelA and RelB), have been genetically manipulated using transgenic and knockout technology.

Abstract
rel/nf-kappaB genes are amplified, overexpressed, or constitutively activated in many human hematopoietic tumors; however, the molecular mechanisms by which they contribute to tumorigenesis remain to be determined. Here, we explored the oncogenic potential of cellular Rel/NF-kappaB proteins in vitro and in vivo. We show that overexpression of wild-type mouse and human c-rel genes suffices to malignantly transform primary spleen cells in stringent soft agar assays and produce fatal tumors in vivo. In contrast relA and a constitutively active form of IKKbeta did not. Importantly, a hybrid RelA protein with its C-terminal transactivation domain substituted by that of v-Rel was potently oncogenic in vitro and in vivo. The transactivation domain of v-Rel selectively conferred an oncogenic phenotype upon the Rel homology domain (RHD) of RelA, but not to the more divergent RHDs of p50/NF-kappaB1, p52/NF-kappaB2, or RelB. Collectively, our results highlight important differences in the intrinsic oncogenic activity of mammalian c-Rel and RelA proteins, and indicate that critical determinants of their differential oncogenicity reside in their divergent transactivation domains. These findings provide experimental evidence for a role of mammalian Rel/NF-kappaB factors in leukemia/lymphomagenesis in an in vivo animal model, and are consistent with the implication of c-rel in many human lymphomas.

Abstract
The v-rel oncogene encoded by reticuloendotheliosis virus strain T is the acutely transforming member of the Rel/NF-kappaB family of transcription factors. In v-Rel-transformed cells, v-Rel exists as homodimers or heterodimers with the endogenous Rel/NF-kappaB proteins c-Rel, NF-kappaB1, NF-kappaB2, and RelA. To examine the contribution of these complexes to v-Rel-mediated transformation, mutations were introduced into the dimerization interface of v-Rel to generate v-Rel mutants with selective dimerization properties. Nine mutants are described in this study that are defective in homodimer and/or heterodimer formation with specific Rel/NF-kappaB family members. Viruses expressing mutants that failed to homodimerize but were able to form heterodimeric complexes were unable to transform splenic lymphocytes in vitro, indicating that the dimerization of v-Rel with endogenously expressed Rel/NF-kappaB proteins is not in itself sufficient for transformation. In addition, two partially transforming mutants were identified that exhibited an impaired ability to form homodimers. Sequence analysis of the proviral DNA from cells transformed by these mutants revealed the presence of multiple secondary mutations in sequences responsible for dimerization and DNA binding. Two of these mutations either enhanced or restored the ability of these proteins to bind DNA as a homodimer. Viruses expressing these proteins transformed cells at levels comparable to or slightly less than v-Rel, suggesting that a threshold level of DNA binding by v-Rel homodimers is required for transformation.

Abstract
The transcription factor NF-kappa B has attracted widespread attention among researchers. NF-kappa B displays some original characteristics including rapid regulation, the wide range of genes that it controls and its probable involvement in several diseases. In resting cells, NF-kappa B is kept in an inactive form in the cytoplasm where it is bound to a member of the I kappa B family of inhibitory proteins. NF-kappa B can be activated by exposure of cells to physiological as well as non physiological stimuli. Upon cell activation, the inhibitors are modified through site specific phosphorylations which target them for subsequent ubiquitination and proteolytic degradation by the proteasome. Removal of the inhibitor unmasks the nuclear localization signals on subunits of NF-kappa B. Free NF-kappa B moves to the nucleus where it binds to target DNA elements and activate transcription of genes encoding proteins involved in immune responses, inflammation or cell proliferation. NF-kappa B could be considered as a co-ordinating element in the body's responses to situations of stress, infection or inflammation. A tight regulation of NF-kappa B seems to be crucial since a dysfunction could promote pathogenic processes including AIDS (acquired immunodeficiency syndrome), rheumatoid arthritis and cancer. Additionally, it will be important to understand the exact roles for NF-kappa B in regulating apoptosis. NF-kappa B is now regarded as a good therapeutic target and the development of specific inhibitors should lead in the next future to novel therapeutics.

Abstract
The mechanisms that govern differentiation of T cell precursors during intrathymic development bridge an interdisciplinary research field of immunology, oncology and developmental biology. Critical checkpoints controlling early thymic T cell development and homeostasis are set by the proper signaling function of the IL-7 receptor, c-Kit receptor, and the pre-T cell antigen receptor (pre-TCR). Given the intimate link between cell cycle control and differentiation in T cell development, proto-oncogenes and tumor suppressors participate as physiological effectors downstream of these receptors not only to influence the cell cycle but also to determine differentiation and survival. Gain- or loss-of-function mutations of these downstream effectors uncouples partially or completely T cell precursors from these checkpoints, providing a selective advantage and enabling aberrant development. These effectors can be identified by provirus tagging in normal mice and more readily by complementation tagging in mice with a predefined block in T cell differentiation.

Abstract
Members of the NF-kappa B/Rel transcription factor family have been shown recently to be required for cellular transformation by oncogenic Ras and by other oncoproteins and to suppress transformation-associated apoptosis. Furthermore, NF-kappa B has been shown to be activated by several oncoproteins including HER2/Neu, a receptor tyrosine kinase often expressed in human breast cancer. Human breast cancer cell lines, human breast tumors and normal adjacent tissue were analysed by gel mobility shift assay, immunoblotting of nuclear extracts and immunohistochemistry for activation of NF-kappa B. Furthermore, RNA levels for NF-kappa B-activated genes were analysed in order to determine if NF-kappa B is functionally active in human breast cancer. Our data indicate that the p65/RelA subunit of NF-kappa B is activated (i.e., nuclear) in breast cancer cell lines. However, breast tumors exhibit an absence or low level of nuclear p65/RelA but show activated c-Rel, p50 and p52 as compared to nontumorigenic adjacent tissue. Additionally, the I kappa B homolog Bcl-3, which functions to stimulate transcription with p50 or p52, was also activated in breast tumors. There was no apparent correlation between estrogen receptor status and levels of nuclear NF-kappa B complexes. Transcripts of NF-kappa B-regulated genes were found elevated in breast tumors, as compared to adjacent normal tissue, indicating functional NF-kappa B activity. These data suggest a potential role for a subset of NF-kappa B and I kappa B family proteins, particularly NF-kappa B/p52 and Bcl-3, in human breast cancer. Additionally, the activation of functional NF-kappa B in these tumors likely involves a signal transduction pathway distinct from that utilized by cytokines.

Abstract
Rel/NF-kappaB transcription factors have been implicated in regulating a wide variety of genes important in cellular processes that include cell division, cell survival, differentiation and immunity. Here genetic models in which various Rel/NF-kappaB and IkappaB proteins have either been over-expressed or deleted in mice will be reviewed. Although expressed fairly ubiquitously, homozygous disruption of individual Rel/NF-kappaB genes generally affects the development of proper immune cell function. One exception is rela, which is essential for embryonic liver development. The disruption of genes encoding the individual subunits of the IkappaB kinase, namely IKKalpha and IKKbeta, has demonstrated that IKKbeta transmits the response to most common NF-kappaB inducing agents, whereas IKKalpha has an unexpected role in keratinocyte differentiation. Future studies will no doubt focus on the effect of multiple gene disruptions of members of this signaling pathway, on tissue-specific disruptions of these genes, and on the use of these mice as models for human diseases.

Abstract
The avian Rev-T retrovirus encodes the v-Rel oncoprotein, which is a member of the Rel/NF-kappaB transcription factor family. v-Rel induces a rapidly fatal lymphoma/leukemia in young birds, and v-Rel can transform and immortalize a variety of avian cell types in vitro. Although Rel/NF-kappaB transcription factors have been associated with oncogenesis in mammals, v-Rel is the only member of this family that is frankly oncogenic in animal model systems. The potent oncogenicity of v-Rel is the consequence of a number of mutations that have altered its activity and regulation: for example, certain mutations decrease its ability to be regulated by IkappaBalpha, change its DNA-binding site specificity, and endow it with new transactivation properties. The study of v-Rel will continue to increase our knowledge of how cellular Rel proteins contribute to oncogenesis by affecting cell growth, altering cell-cycle regulation, and blocking apoptosis. This review will discuss biological and molecular activities of v-Rel, with particular attention to how these activities relate to structure - function aspects of the Rel/NF-kappaB transcription factors.

Abstract
AbstractNuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) is a ubiquitous transcription factor that governs the expression of genes encoding cytokines, chemokines, growth factors, cell adhesion molecules, and some acute phase proteins in health and in various disease states. NF-κB is activated by several agents, including cytokines, oxidant free radicals, inhaled particles, ultraviolet irradiation, and bacterial or viral products. Inappropriate activation of NF-κB has been linked to inflammatory events associated with autoimmune arthritis, asthma, septic shock, lung fibrosis, glomerulonephritis, atherosclerosis, and AIDS. In contrast, complete and persistent inhibition of NF-κB has been linked directly to apoptosis, inappropriate immune cell development, and delayed cell growth. Therefore, development of modulatory strategies targeting this transcription factor may provide a novel therapeutic tool for the treatment or prevention of various diseases.

Abstract
The IkappaB alpha protein is able both to inhibit nuclear import of Rel/NF-kappaB proteins and to mediate the export of Rel/NF-kappaB proteins from the nucleus. We now demonstrate that the c-Rel-IkappaB alpha complex is stably retained in the cytoplasm in the presence of leptomycin B, a specific inhibitor of Crm1-mediated nuclear export. In contrast, leptomycin B treatment results in the rapid and complete relocalization of the v-Rel-IkappaB alpha complex from the cytoplasm to the nucleus. IkappaB alpha also mediates the rapid nuclear shuttling of v-Rel in an interspecies heterokaryon assay. Thus, continuous nuclear export is required for cytoplasmic retention of the v-Rel-IkappaB alpha complex. Furthermore, although IkappaB alpha is able to mask the c-Rel-derived nuclear localization sequence (NLS), IkappaB alpha is unable to mask the v-Rel-derived NLS in the context of the v-Rel-IkappaB alpha complex. Taken together, our results demonstrate that IkappaB alpha is unable to inhibit nuclear import of v-Rel. We have identified two amino acid differences between c-Rel and v-Rel (Y286S and L302P) which link the failure of IkappaB alpha to inhibit nuclear import and DNA binding of a mutant c-Rel protein to oncogenesis. Our results support a model in which loss of IkappaB alpha-mediated control over c-Rel leads to oncogenic activation of c-Rel.
