In addition, the recent researches suggest that many molecules (such as various anti‐cancer drugs, non‐coding RNA, microRNA, etc.)regulate the apoptosis of cancer cell through the NF‐κB pathway and other coordinated pathways (such as AMPK, AKT, glycogen synthase kinase 3, metabolism pathways).311, 312, 313, 314, 315, 316, 317. The gene discussed is NFKB1; the disease is cancer.
