TUMOR NECROSIS FACTOR ALPHA (TNF-a)
Tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF, TNFSF2) is an important multifunctional cytokine that regulates inflammation, host defense, immune responses, and apoptosis. TNF exists as a membrane-bound 26kDa, type II integral membrane protein, and a 17kDa soluble homotrimeric TNF that is generated via proteolytic cleavage by TNF-a converting enzyme (TACE, ADAM17). Both the membrane-bound and soluble forms ...
متن کاملCloning of human tumor necrosis factor (TNF) receptor cDNA and expression of recombinant soluble TNF-binding protein.
The cDNA for one of the receptors for human tumor necrosis factor (TNF) has been isolated. This cDNA encodes a protein of 455 amino acids that is divided into an extracellular domain of 171 residues and a cytoplasmic domain of 221 residues. The extracellular domain has been engineered for expression in mammalian cells, and this recombinant derivative binds TNF alpha with high affinity and inhib...
متن کاملTumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha induces leptin production through the p55 TNF receptor.
Tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha acts directly on adipocytes to increase production of the lipostatic factor, leptin. However, which TNF receptor (TNFR) mediates this response is not known. To answer this question, leptin was measured in plasma of wild-type (WT), p55, and p75 TNFR knockout (KO) mice injected intraperitoneally with murine TNF-alpha and in supernatants from cultured WT, p55, and...
متن کاملThe Role of Tumor Necrosis Factor-alpha (TNF- ) in Skeletal Muscle Regeneration: Studies in TNF- (- -) and TNF- (- -) LT- (- -) Mice
The role of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF), an important mediator of the inflammatory response after injury, was investigated in regenerating skeletal muscle. The pattern of expression of TNFduring muscle regeneration was examined by immunohistochemistry in tissue sections of crush-injured or transplanted muscle autografts and in primary cultures of adult skeletal muscle. TNFwas highly expre...
متن کاملInteractions of tumor necrosis factor (TNF) and TNF receptor family members in the mouse and human.
Ligands of the tumor necrosis factor superfamily (TNFSF) (4-1BBL, APRIL, BAFF, CD27L, CD30L, CD40L, EDA1, EDA2, FasL, GITRL, LIGHT, lymphotoxin alpha, lymphotoxin alphabeta, OX40L, RANKL, TL1A, TNF, TWEAK, and TRAIL) bind members of the TNF receptor superfamily (TNFRSF). A comprehensive survey of ligand-receptor interactions was performed using a flow cytometry-based assay. All ligands engaged ...
