<h4>Background & aims</h4>The transcription factor nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) (a heterodimer of NF-κB1p50 and RelA) is activated rapidly in acute pancreatitis (AP). However, it is not clear whether NF-κB promotes or protects against AP. We used the NF-κB inhibitor protein, inhibitor of κB (IκB)α, to study the roles of NF-κB in the development of AP in mice.<h4>Methods</h4>IκBα or the combination of IκBα and RelA selectively were deleted from pancreas of mice using the Cre/locus of cross-over P st ...[more]
