Tumor necrosis factor receptor-mediated signaling pathways
T UMOR necrosis factor c~ (TNF) ~ and tumor necrosis factor ~ (lymphotoxin) are two cytokines produced primarily by macrophages and lymphocytes, respectively. These cytokines are recognized by the same cell surface receptors and are associated with similar biological activities. Some of the well-known TNF effects include septic shock, cytotoxicity, inflammation, and cachexia. The role of TNF in...
متن کاملAssociation 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 کاملThe transmembrane form of tumor necrosis factor is the prime activating ligand of the 80 kDa tumor necrosis factor receptor
The 60 kDa tumor necrosis factor receptor (TNFR60) is regarded as the major signal transducer of TNF-induced cellular responses, whereas the signal capacity and role of the 80 kDa TNFR (TNFR80) remain largely undefined. We show here that the transmembrane form of TNF is superior to soluble TNF in activating TNFR80 in various systems such as T cell activation, thymocyte proliferation, and granul...
متن کاملThe nerve growth factor/tumor necrosis factor receptor family.
Receptors in the nerve growth factor/tumor necrosis factor receptor family are characterized by the presence of cysteine-rich motifs of approximately 40 amino acids in the extracellular domain. The ligands are type II transmembrane proteins with beta-strands that form a jelly-roll beta-sandwich. The receptors recognize soluble or cell-surface-bound ligands and mediate diverse cellular responses...
متن کامل[Tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated periodic syndrome].
Tumoral necrosis factor receptor-associated periodic syndrome (TRAPS) is an autosomal dominantly inherited disease belonging to the hereditary periodic fever syndromes, which are the main subgroup among systemic autoinflammatory diseases. TRAPS is characterized by prolonged and recurrent inflammatory attacks associated with fever and an acute phase reaction. Articular, cutaneous, ocular and abd...
