A20: a jack of all trades

Trends Cell Biol. 2024 May;34(5):360-362. doi: 10.1016/j.tcb.2024.02.008. Epub 2024 Mar 9.

Abstract

Mutations and polymorphisms in A20/TNFAIP3 have been linked to various inflammatory disorders. However, in addition to its well-known role in inflammation, A20 also controls EDAR- and receptor activator of NF-κB (RANK)-induced NF-κB signaling, regulating the development of epidermal skin appendages and bone, respectively. Furthermore, A20 regulates synapse remodeling through a mechanism dependent on NF-κB.

Keywords: A20; EDAR; NF-κB; RANK; development; synapse.
