expressed primarily <strong>in</strong> hematopoietic organs especially bone marrow. After the<br />

Bortezomib, the afore-mentioned prote<strong>in</strong> came to light to carry out its function. The<br />

other prote<strong>in</strong> was Mothers aga<strong>in</strong>st decapentaplegic homolog 7 that is <strong>in</strong>volved <strong>in</strong> cell<br />

signal<strong>in</strong>g.<br />

Spot 8, Suppressor of tumorigenicity 7 prote<strong>in</strong> may act as a tumor suppressor. It<br />

is another newly formed prote<strong>in</strong>.<br />

Spot 27, Apoptosis Regulatory Prote<strong>in</strong> Siva <strong>in</strong>duces CD27-mediated apoptosis<br />

and <strong>in</strong>hibits BCL2L1 isoform Bcl-x(L) anti-apoptotic activity. It is also <strong>in</strong>hibits<br />

activation of NF-κB and promotes T-cell receptor-mediated apoptosis. So, generation of<br />

this prote<strong>in</strong> after the Bortezomib stress is vital for cancerous cells.<br />

Spot 35 has three opportunities s<strong>in</strong>ce it did not determ<strong>in</strong>e exactly. One of them<br />

was Ras-related prote<strong>in</strong> Rab-43. The others were Interleuk<strong>in</strong>-32 and Myos<strong>in</strong> light<br />

polypeptide 6. IL-32 is a cytok<strong>in</strong>e that may play a role <strong>in</strong> <strong>in</strong>nate and adaptive immune<br />

responses. It <strong>in</strong>duces various cytok<strong>in</strong>es such as TNFA/TNF-alpha and IL8 and activates<br />

typical cytok<strong>in</strong>e signal pathways of NF-κB and p38 MAPK.<br />

Spot 9 has two alternatives: Bone marrow stromal antigen 2 and NF-κB p105<br />

subunit. First prote<strong>in</strong> may be <strong>in</strong>volved <strong>in</strong> the sort<strong>in</strong>g of secreted prote<strong>in</strong>s and pre-B-cell<br />

growth. Also it may play a role <strong>in</strong> B-cell activation. NF-κB is a pleiotropic transcription<br />

factor which is present <strong>in</strong> almost all cell types and is <strong>in</strong>volved <strong>in</strong> many biological<br />

processed such as <strong>in</strong>flammation, immunity, differentiation, cell growth, tumorigenesis<br />

and apoptosis. NF-κB is a homo- or heterodimeric complex formed by the Rel-like<br />

doma<strong>in</strong>-conta<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>g prote<strong>in</strong>s RELA/p65, RELB, NFKB1/p105, NF-κB1/p50, REL and<br />

NF-κB2/p52 and the heterodimeric p65-p50 complex appears to be most abundant one.<br />

The dimers b<strong>in</strong>d at κB sites <strong>in</strong> the DNA of their target genes and the <strong>in</strong>dividual dimers<br />

have dist<strong>in</strong>ct preferences for different κB sites that they can b<strong>in</strong>d with dist<strong>in</strong>guishable<br />

aff<strong>in</strong>ity and specificity. Different dimer comb<strong>in</strong>ations act as transcriptional activators or<br />

repressors, respectively. NF-κB is controlled by various mechanisms of post-<br />

translational modification and subcellular compartmentalization as well as by<br />

<strong>in</strong>teractions with other cofactors or corepressors. NF-κB complexes are held <strong>in</strong> the<br />

cytoplasm <strong>in</strong> an <strong>in</strong>active state complexed with members of the NF-κB <strong>in</strong>hibitor (IκB)<br />

family. In a conventional activation pathway, IκB is phosphorylated by IκB k<strong>in</strong>ases<br />

(IKKs) <strong>in</strong> response to different activators, subsequently degraded thus liberat<strong>in</strong>g the<br />

active NF-κB complex which translocates to the nucleus. NF-κB heterodimeric p65-p50<br />

and RelB-p50 complexes are transcriptional activators. The NF-κB p50-p50 homodimer<br />
