IκB Kinase β (IKKβ), a key component of NFκB signaling, plays an important role in bone disease and cancer. Genetic and pharmacological inhibition of IKKβ/NFκB signaling increase bone mass and protect against ovariectomy- and inflammation-induced bone loss. Here, we describe a previously unknown role of the IKKβ/FoxO3a axis in bone metastasis associated with breast cancer. We observed that IKKβ expression is prevalent in invasive breast ...
