There were similar findings by Li et al. who found an increase in the NF-κB activity and IL-8 and IL-6 production in human bronchial epithelial cells (16HBE) that had a downregulation of ABCC7/CFTR [18] as well as in patients with human lung adenocarcinoma cell lines [26]. Here, NFKB1 is linked to lung adenocarcinoma.
