Abstract
IκB kinases (IKKs), specifically IKKα and IKKβ, have long been recognized for their pivotal role in the NF-κB pathway, orchestrating immune and inflammatory responses. However, recent years have unveiled their dual role in cancer, where they can act as both promoters and suppressors of tumorigenesis. In addition, the interplay with pathways such as the MAPK and PI3K pathways underscores the complexity of IKK regulation and its multifaceted role in both inflammation and cancer. By exploring the molecular underpinnings of these processes, we can better comprehend the complex interplay between IKKs, tumor development, immune responses, and the development of more effective therapeutics. Ultimately, this review explores the dual role of IκB kinases in cancer, focusing on the impact of phosphorylation events and crosstalk with other signaling pathways, shedding light on their intricate regulation and multifaceted functions in both inflammation and cancer.
