The control of inflammation and metabolism by NF-κB and its relevance to CVMDs. NF-κB transcription factors control several physiologic functions, including morphogenesis and differentiation, cell proliferation and apoptosis, immunity and inflammation. Recent work has shed light in the control of cell energy metabolism by NF-κB. By regulating both inflammatory and metabolic pathways, NF-κB has been involved in the pathogenesis of CVMDs, thereby opening the way to the identification of metabolic factors under NF-κB control as target for therapy.
