Core Tip	Until now, there has been limited information regarding the specific nuclear factor (NF)-κB proteins involved in polycystic kidney disease (PKD) and their expression throughout disease progression. Our study demonstrated that a diverse array of NF-κB proteins is expressed in the renal cyst-lining cells of a chronic rodent model of PKD, and that NF-κB expression is constitutive over time. NF-κB was also identified in human PKD, suggesting that NF-κB upregulation is common to renal cystic disease models. Our data suggest that components of both the canonical and non-canonical NF-κB pathway are upregulated in PKD. Future studies should be directed at verifying whether specific NF-κB inhibition can attenuate interstitial inflammation and cyst growth, and slow the decline in renal function in in vivo models of PKD.
