Abstract

The nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-kappaB) signaling pathway plays a key role in inflammation, immune response, cell growth control and protection against apoptosis. Recently, it has been associated with several distinct genetic diseases that exhibit a large spectrum of dysfunction, such as skin inflammation, perturbed skin appendage development and immunodeficiencies. In this review, a summary of the pathophysiological consequences of impaired NF-kappaB activation in humans is provided with respect to the functions of the molecules which are mutated.
