Proposed Schematic for AKR1B10 activating TLR4/NF-κB signaling pathway by promoting FFA synthesis in NPC. AKR1B10-induced FFA synthesis activates the TLR4/ NF-κB signaling axis, IKBα phosphorylation and NF-κB nuclear translocation, which then regulates cell cycle arrest and DNA damage repair. IR: irradiation; FFA: Free fatty acid; →, activation or upregulation; ┴ inhibition or downregulation.
