Fig. 3. Potential therapeutic implications of the NF-
B-mediated blockade of TNF-
-induced JNK signaling. A positive-feedback loop between TNF-
and NF-
B drives chronic inflammatory states; several pharmacological agents can be used to treat these states. The effects of MKK7-mimicking peptides are also shown (Papa et al., 2004), which support the therapeutic feasibility of blocking the NF-
B anti-apoptotic activity without significantly affecting the immune system.
