摘要
昆虫NF-κB信号通路由toll和imd两条通路组成,通过转录因子NF-κB作用于靶标基因κB位点,而调节抗菌活性物质的表达。大量实验表明它能够被细菌、真菌和病毒的侵染所激活,在昆虫体液免疫中发挥着主要作用。现就昆虫的NF-κB信号通路的主要信号元件等进行综述。
In insects, the NF-kB signal pathway, being composed of toll path and imd path, regulates the expression of antimicrobial genes as NF-kB factors binding kB sequence of targeted genes. Evidences have proved that this pathway plays a vital role in insect innate immunity, and can be triggered by proinflammatory microbes and viruses. In this article, the signal elements of this signal pathway in insects are reviewed mainly.
