Association of VNTR polymorphism of tumor necrosis factor receptor 2 (TNFRSF1B) with pulmonary tuberculosis
This study was designed to find out the impact of the variable number of tandem repeats (VNTR) of the tumor necrosis factor receptor 2 (TNFRSF1B) on pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB) risk in an Iranian population. This case-control study was done on 159 PTB patients and 158 healthy subjects. Bi-allelic TNFRSF1B VNTR was genotyped by polymerase chain reaction. Logistic regression analysis revealed no...
متن کاملUVB-induced association of tumor necrosis factor (TNF) receptor 1/TNF receptor-associated factor-2 mediates activation of Rel proteins.
Exposure of mammalian skin to UV light results in induced gene transcription, playing a role in inflammation, immunosuppression, and tumor promotion. One important group of transcription factors induced by UV radiation is composed of members of the Rel/NF-kappa B family, which are known to play a major role in the transcriptional activation of many genes encoding inflammatory cytokines, adhesio...
متن کاملMembrane tumor necrosis factor (TNF) induces p100 processing via TNF receptor-2 (TNFR2).
Tumor necrosis factor (TNF) elicits its biological activities by stimulation of two receptors, TNFR1 and TNFR2, both belonging to the TNF receptor superfamily. Whereas TNFR1-mediated signal transduction has been intensively studied and is understood in detail, especially with respect to activation of the classical NFkappaB pathway, cell death induction, and MAP kinase signaling, TNFR2-associate...
متن کاملTUMOR 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 کاملTumor necrosis factor (TNF)-soluble high-affinity receptor complex as a TNF antagonist.
A novel high-affinity inhibitor of tumor necrosis factor (TNF) is described, which is created by the fusion of the extracellular domains of TNF-binding protein 1 (TBP-1) to both the alpha and beta chains of an inactive version of the heterodimeric protein hormone, human chorionic gonadotropin. The resulting molecule, termed TNF-soluble high-affinity receptor complex (SHARC), self-assembles into...
