NFKBIB encodes IκBβ, an inhibitor of NF-κB similar to IκBα. IκBβ can bind RELA and c-Rel, regulating their nuclear import. It may have distinct temporal regulation in inflammatory responses.
Expressed in various tissues, with inducible expression.
| Disease | Variants | Inheritance | Mechanism |
|---|---|---|---|
| Alzheimer's Disease | Altered expression | - | Chronic NF-κB activation promotes neuroinflammation, microglial activation, and neuronal death |
| Parkinson's Disease | Altered expression | - | Contributes to neuroinflammation and dopaminergic neuron loss |
| Multiple Sclerosis | Altered expression | - | Regulates immune cell activation and demyelination |
| Various | See specific diseases | - | Role in inflammatory responses and cell survival |
