. Tumor necrosis factor is the primary mediator of host responses initiated by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and leading to septic shock. LPS-mediated activation of transcription most likely depends on which of the following transcription factors?
A ) c-ras
B ) Nuclear factor-kappa B
C ) p53
D ) Rb protein
E ) VP-16 (etoposide)

B. Nuclear factor-kappa B

Yes !

B.- nuclear factor kappa B

  #4

take a look

B. NFkappaB. Also, possibly a high yield fact for USMLE 1, this is important for the synthesis of IL-2. The main mechanism of action for immunosuppression of glucocorticoids is through inhibition of the action of this chemical. C-ras is a protein involved in accelerating the cell cycle, p53 slows it down if there is damage to DNA, Rb is the retinoblastoma protein, which sequesters important cell-cycle promoting molecules, which are released as the cycle progresses, and I have no idea what VP 16 is.

The question basically asks which Transcription factor is needed to make TNF.

NKFB is the only one on the list even related to cytokine production.
