NFkappaB inhibitory factor IkappaB decreased the luciferase activity, and forced expression of NFkappaB induced MUC6 transcription ... Our results suggest that MUC6 transcription is regulated by NFkappaB and Sp family members

NF-kappaB activation in airway epithelial cells has been shown to play a positive inflammatory role in chronic airway diseases ; however, the role of NF-kappaB in mucin gene expression is unresolved
Li et al., Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 1998
(Cystic Fibrosis...) :
Activated NF-kappaB binds to a kappaB site in the 5'-flanking region of the MUC2 gene and activates MUC2 mucin transcription
