Abstract
Fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) discovery has provided new insights into the regulation of Pi and Ca homeostasis. It is secreted by osteoblasts and osteocytes, and acts mainly in the kidney, parathyroid, heart, and bone. The aim of this review is to highlight the current knowledge on the factors modulating the synthesis of FGF23, the canonical and non-canonical signaling pathways of the hormone, the role of FGF23 in different pathophysiological conditions, and the anti-FGF23 therapy. This is a narrative review based on the search of PubMed database in the range of years 2000-2023 using the keywords local and systemic regulators of FGF23 synthesis, FGF23 receptors, canonical and non-canonical pathways, pathophysiological conditions and FGF23, and anti-FGF23 therapy, focusing the data on the molecular mechanisms. The regulation of FGF23 synthesis is complex and multifactorial. It is regulated by local factors and systemic regulators mainly involved in bone mineralization. The excessive FGF23 production is associated with different congenital diseases and with diseases occurring with a secondary high FGF23 production such as in chronic disease kidney and tumor-induced osteomalacia (TIO). The anti-FGF23 therapy appears to be useful to treat chromosome X-linked hypophosphatemia and TIO, but there are doubts about the handle of excessive FGF23 production in CKD. FGF23 biochemistry and pathophysiology are generating a plethora of knowledge to reduce FGF23 bioactivity at many levels that might be useful for future therapeutics of diseases associated with high-serum FGF23 levels.

Abstract
The Sonic hedgehog (SHh) signaling pathway is an imperative operating network that helps in regulates the critical events during the development processes like multicellular embryo growth and patterning. Disruptions in SHh pathway regulation can have severe consequences, including congenital disabilities, stem cell renewal, tissue regeneration, and cancer/tumor growth. Activation of the SHh signal occurs when SHh binds to the receptor complex of Patch (Ptc)-mediated Smoothened (Smo) (Ptc-smo), initiating downstream signaling. This review explores how pharmacological modulation of the SHh pathway affects angiogenesis through canonical and non-canonical pathways. The canonical pathway for angiogenesis involves the activation of angiogenic cytokines such as fibroblast growth factor (FGF), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), placental growth factor (PGF), hepatocyte growth factor (HGF), platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF), stromal cell-derived factor 1α, transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1), and angiopoietins (Ang-1 and Ang-2), which facilitate the process of angiogenesis. The Non-canonical pathway includes indirect activation of certain pathways like iNOS/Netrin-1/PKC, RhoA/Rock, ERK/MAPK, PI3K/Akt, Wnt/β-catenin, Notch signaling pathway, and so on. This review will provide a better grasp of the mechanistic approach of SHh in mediating angiogenesis, which can aid in the suppression of certain cancer and tumor growths.

Abstract
The mechanistic/mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) regulates various cellular processes, in part through incorporation into distinct protein complexes. The mTOR complex 1 (mTORC1) contains the Raptor subunit, while mTORC2 specifically contains the Rictor subunit. Mouse genetic studies, including ours, have revealed a critical role for mTOR in skeletogenesis through its expression in undifferentiated mesenchymal cells. In addition, we have recently revealed that mTORC1 expression in chondrocytes is crucial for skeletogenesis. Recent work indicates that mTOR regulates cellular functions, depending on the context, through both complex-dependent (canonical pathway) and complex-independent roles (noncanonical pathway). Here, we determined that mTOR regulates skeletal development through the noncanonical pathway, as well as the canonical pathway, in a cell-type and context-specific manner. Inactivation of Mtor in undifferentiated mesenchymal cells or chondrocytes led to either severe hypoplasia in appendicular skeletons or a severe and generalized chondrodysplasia, respectively. Moreover, Rictor deletion in undifferentiated mesenchymal cells or chondrocytes led to mineralization defects in some skeletal components. Finally, we revealed that simultaneous deletion of Raptor and Rictor in undifferentiated mesenchymal cells recapitulated the appendicular skeletal phenotypes of Mtor deficiency, whereas chondrocyte-specific Raptor and Rictor double-mutants exhibited milder hypoplasia of appendicular and axial skeletons than those seen upon Mtor deletion. These findings indicate that mTOR regulates skeletal development mainly through the canonical pathway in undifferentiated mesenchymal cells, but at least in part through the noncanonical pathway in chondrocytes.

Abstract
This study focused on a comprehensive analysis of the canonical activation pathway of the redox-sensitive transcription factor nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) in peripheral blood mononuclear cells, addressing c-Rel, p65 and p50 activation in 28 women at early (T1) and late follicular (T2) and mid (T3) and late luteal (T4) phase of the menstrual cycle, and possible relations with fasting plasma lipids and fatty acids. For the first time, strong inverse relations of c-Rel with apolipoprotein B were observed across the cycle, while those with LDL cholesterol, triglycerides as well as saturated (SFA), particularly C14-C22 SFA, monounsaturated (MUFA), and polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) clustered at T2. In contrast, p65 was positively related to LDL cholesterol and total n-6 PUFA, while p50 did not show any relations. C-Rel was not directly associated with estradiol and progesterone, but data suggested an indirect C22:5n-3-mediated effect of progesterone. Strong positive relations between estradiol and individual SFA, MUFA and n-3 PUFA at T1 were confined to C18 fatty acids; C18:3n-3 was differentially associated with estradiol (positively) and progesterone (inversely). Given specific roles of c-Rel activation in immune tolerance, inhibition of c-Rel activation by higher plasma apolipoprotein B and individual fatty acid concentrations could have clinical implications for female fertility.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE NF-κB can be activated by the canonical and non-canonical pathways. These two pathways interplay via the TRAF1|NIK complex after stimulation by TNF. However existing mathematical models of two pathways are inadequate. In this context, an improved mathematical model is constructed to simulate these two pathways and their coupling stimulated by TNF. METHODS A schematic description of two NF-κB pathways and their relation after TNF stimulation is constructed at first. Then twenty-eight ordinary differential equations are utilized to build the mathematical model. Model equations are solved via the ordinary differential equation solver (ode23). RESULTS The proposed model firstly reconstructs the changes in concentrations of NF-κB pathway related biochemical factors with time, and further investigates the underlying mechanism of interaction between two pathways through the TRAF1|NIK complex after stimulation. CONCLUSIONS The model is validated through good agreement between simulation results and published experimental observations. This study helps to well understand the canonical and non-canonical pathways and their interaction. It also provides a potential tool to investigate how the dysregulated pathways act in pathological conditions.

Abstract
High glucose-induced inflammation leads to atherosclerosis, which is considered a major cause of death in type 1 and type 2 diabetic patients. Nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) plays a central role in high glucose-induced inflammation and is activated through toll-like receptors (TLRs) as well as canonical and protein kinase C-dependent (PKC) pathways. Non-toxic sulfur (NTS) and methylsulfonylmethane (MSM) are two sulfur-containing natural compounds that can induce anti-inflammation. Using Western blotting, real-time polymerase chain reaction, and flow cytometry, we found that high glucose-induced inflammation occurs through activation of TLRs. An effect of NTS and MSM on canonical and PKC-dependent NF-κB pathways was also demonstrated by western blotting. The effects of proinflammatory cytokines were investigated using a chromatin immunoprecipitation assay and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Our results showed inhibition of the glucose-induced expression of TLR2 and TLR4 by NTS and MSM. These sulfur compounds also inhibited NF-κB activity through reactive oxygen species (ROS)-mediated canonical and PKC-dependent pathways. Finally, NTS and MSM inhibited the high glucose-induced expression of interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-6, and tumor necrosis factor-α and binding of NF-κB protein to the DNA of proinflammatory cytokines. Together, these results suggest that NTS and MSM may be potential drug candidates for anti-inflammation therapy.

Abstract
It is estimated that up to 20% of all types of human cancers worldwide are attributed to viruses. The genome of oncogenic viruses carries genes that have protein products that act as oncoproteins in cell proliferation and transformation. The modulation of cell cycle control mechanisms, cellular regulatory and signaling pathways by oncogenic viruses, plays an important role in viral carcinogenesis. Different signaling pathways play a part in the carcinogenesis that occurs in a cell. Among these pathways, the Wnt signaling pathway plays a predominant role in carcinogenesis and is known as a central cellular pathway in the development of tumors. There are three Wnt signaling pathways that are well identified, including the canonical or Wnt/β-catenin dependent pathway, the noncanonical or β-catenin-independent planar cell polarity (PCP) pathway, and the noncanonical Wnt/Ca2+ pathway. Most of the oncogenic viruses modulate the canonical Wnt signaling pathway. This review discusses the interaction between proteins of several human oncogenic viruses with the Wnt signaling pathway.

Abstract
Mantle cell lymphoma is an aggressive subtype of non-Hodgkin B cell lymphoma that is characterized by a poor prognosis determined by Ki67 and Mantle Cell International Prognostic Index scores, but it is becoming increasingly treatable. The majority of patients, especially if young, achieve a progression-free survival of at least 5 years. Mantle cell lymphoma can initially be treated with an anti-CD20 antibody in combination with a chemotherapy backbone, such as VR-CAP (the anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody rituximab administered with cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, and prednisone) or R-CHOP (the anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody rituximab administered with cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone). While initial treatment can facilitate recovery and complete remission in a few patients, many patients experience relapsed or refractory mantle cell lymphoma within 2 to 3 years after initial treatment. Targeted agents such as ibrutinib, an inhibitor of Bruton’s tyrosine kinase, which has been approved only in the relapsed setting, can be used to treat patients with relapsed or refractory mantle cell lymphoma. However, mantle cell lymphoma cells often acquire resistance to such targeted agents and continue to survive by activating alternate signaling pathways such as the PI3K-Akt pathway or the NF-κB pathways. NF-κB is a transcription factor family that regulates the growth and survival of B cells; mantle cell lymphoma cells depend on NF-κB signaling for continued growth and proliferation. The NF-κB signaling pathways are categorized into canonical and non-canonical types, wherein the canonical pathway prompts inflammatory responses, immune regulation, and cell proliferation, while the non-canonical leads to B cell maturation and lymphoid organogenesis. Since these pathways upregulate survival genes and tumor-promoting cytokines, they can be activated to overcome the inhibitory effects of targeted agents, thereby having profound effects on tumorigenesis. The NF-κB pathways are also highly targetable in that they are interconnected with numerous other pathways, including B cell receptor signaling, PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling, and toll-like receptor signaling pathways. Additionally, elements of the non-canonical NF- κB pathway, such as NF-κB-inducing kinase, can be targeted to overcome resistance to targeting of the canonical NF- κB pathway. Targeting the molecular mechanisms of the NF-κB pathways can facilitate the development of novel agents to treat malignancies and overcome drug resistance in patients with relapsed or refractory mantle cell lymphoma.

Abstract
Porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV) strains can be divided into non-S-INDEL and S-INDEL strains. PEDV pathogenesis is strain-specific, and studies in neonatal pigs have demonstrated that the PEDV non-S-INDEL strains are more pathogenic than the PEDV S-INDEL strains. RNA viruses, including PEDV, can interact with a large number of pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) in the intestinal mucosa, including toll-like receptors (TLRs) and RIG-I-like receptors (RLRs). We investigated the differential gene modulation of TLRs, RIG-I, and downstream mediators on the intestinal mucosa of neonatal pigs infected with PEDV S-INDEL and non-S-INDEL strains. Ten five-day-old piglets were inoculated orally with 10 ml of 104 TCDI50/ml of either PEDV non-S-INDEL or S-INDEL strains. PEDV S-INDEL infection induced pro-inflammatory cytokines through the non-canonical NF-κB signaling pathway by activating RIG-I. In contrast, PEDV non-S-INDEL infection suppressed the induction of pro-inflammatory cytokines and type 1 interferon production by down-regulation of TLRs and downstream signaling molecules. Differential gene modulation of TLR and RIG-I-like receptors and downstream mediators. PEDV S-INDEL induces pro-inflammatory cytokines through non-canonical NF-κB signaling pathway. PEDV S-INDEL pro-inflammatory cytokines activation is RIG-I dependent. PEDV non-S-INDEL suppresses the induction of pro-inflammatory cytokines and type 1 interferon. PEDV non-S-INDEL effect is mediated by down-regulation of TLRs and its downstream-signaling molecules. PEDV S-INDEL and PEDV non-S-INDEL cause differential modulation on innate immune response pathways. Differential modulation could be translated into differences in pathogenesis and clinical outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND NF-κB is a transcription factor involved in cancer stem cells maintenance of many tumors. Little is known about the specific stem-associated upstream regulators of this pathway in ovarian cancer. The Aim of the study was to analyze the role of the canonical and non-canonical NF-κB pathways in stem cells of ovarian cancer cell lines. METHODS Stem cells were isolated using sorting cytometry. Western blot and RT-PCR were used to quantify protein and messenger RNA levels. Loss and gain of function assays were performed using siRNAs and dominant-negative proteins, respectively. NF-κB binding activity was measured with a reporter gene assay. The stem phenotype was estimated with clonogenic assays using soft agar, colony formation, ovospheres formation and in vivo tumorigenicity assays. RESULTS The CD44+ subpopulation of SKOV3 ovarian cancer cell line presented higher mRNA levels of key stemness genes, an increased tumorigenic capacity and higher expression of the RelA, RelB and IKKα. When the canonical pathway was inhibited by means of a dominant-negative version of IkBα, the stem cell population was reduced, as shown by a reduced CD44+ subpopulation, a decrease in the expression of the stemness genes and a reduction of the stem phenotype. In addition, IKKα, the main upstream non-canonical kinase, was highly expressed in the CSC population. Accordingly, when IKKα was inhibited using shRNAs, the expression of the stemness genes was reduced. CONCLUSIONS This report is the first to show the importance of several elements of both NF-κB pathway in maintaining the ovarian cancer stem cell population.

Abstract
A previous study found that NF-κB activation is delayed in L929 cells infected with wild-type (wt) strains of VSV, while activation occurred earlier in cells infected with mutant strain T1026R1 (R1) that encodes a mutation in the cytotoxic matrix (M) protein. The integrity of the other R1 proteins is unknown; therefore our goal was to identify the viral component responsible for preventing NF-κB activation in L929 cells. We found that the M protein inhibits viral-mediated activation of NF-κB in the context of viral infection and when expressed alone via transfection, and that the M51R mutation in M abrogates this function. Addition of an IκB kinase (IKK) inhibitor blocked NF-κB activation and interferon-β mRNA expression in cells infected with viruses encoding the M51R mutation in M. These results indicate that the VSV M protein inhibits activation of NF-κB by targeting an event upstream of IKK in the canonical pathway.

Abstract
NFκB has been known to be a necessary transcription factor for the functioning of nearly all cells in a living organism. For its proper functioning, it talks to several other molecular cofactors and interacts with their functionalities resulting in a convoluted cross talking mesh of signalling networks. To completely understand the working of nuclear factor-kappa B protein, one needs to understand the interactions that occur during its lifecycle, with cofactors from various biological processes. This study attempts to elaborate and bridge the gaps on the cross-talk interactions that NFkB is a part of, during its activation pathway. For this Cytoscape and its various plugins (Cytocopter, Allegro, AgilentLitSearch and Styles) are employed. Other related pathways were also collated and analysed for cross-talk between NfκB and interacting molecules. NFκB was found to mainly interact with E3 ubiquitin ligase, NIK, RIP, TCR, IRAK-1, TLR, TRAF-6, NLR and IL-1, details of which are discussed as a part of this study.

Abstract
Although Wnts are expressed in hair follicles (HFs) and considered to be crucial for maintaining dermal papilla (DP) cells, the functional differences among them remain largely unknown. In the present study, we investigated the effects of Wnts (Wnt-3a, 5a, 10b, 11) on the proliferation of mouse-derived primary DP cells in vitro as well as their trichogenesis-promoting ability using an in vivo skin reconstitution protocol. Wnt-10b promoted cell proliferation and trichogenesis, while Wnt-3a showed those abilities to a limited extent, and Wnt-5a and 11 had no effects. Furthermore, we investigated the effects of these Wnts on cultured DP cells obtained from versican-GFP transgenic mice and found that Wnt-10b had a potent ability to sustain their GFP-positivity. These results suggest that canonical Wnts, specifically Wnt-10b, play important roles in the maintenance of DP cells and trichogenesis.
