High expression of NF-κB inducing kinase in the bulge region of hair follicle induces tumor.
Immunobiology 2023 July 9
The bulge region, a reservoir of multipotent stem cells, is possibly responsible for tumorigenesis. NF-κB-inducing kinase (NIK) is a kinase involved in the activation of the noncanonical NF-κB pathway and exhibits positive staining in tumor cells. However, whether high expression of NIK can result in tumorigenesis has not been reported in published papers. By establishing Nik-coe (Nik-stopF/F crossed with Chat-cre) and Nik-soe (Nik-stopF/F crossed with Sox9-cre) mice, we found that overexpression of Nik in the bulge region of hair follicles induced hair follicle loss and tumorigenesis. Furthermore, RNA sequencing, proteomic and phosphopeptide analyses revealed that multiple cancer pathways are involved in tumor formation. Taken together, these findings indicate that constitutive activation of Nik in the bulge region induces tumorigenesis.
