Claim 1context dependencesupports2006Source 1DOIPubMed

NF-κB effects on apoptosis and necrosis vary markedly by cellular context and can include sensitization to death-inducing stimuli.

Improper regulation of programmed cell death by NF-κB has pathological consequences ranging from neurodegeneration to cancer and may reduce therapy effectiveness.
