Tumor Necrosis Factor (TNF) and Chemokines in Colitis-Associated Cancer
The connection between inflammation and tumorigenesis has been well established, based on a great deal of supporting evidence obtained from epidemiological, pharmacological, and genetic studies. One representative example is inflammatory bowel disease, because it is an important risk factor for the development of colon cancer. Moreover, intratumoral infiltration of inflammatory cells suggests t...
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 کاملexpression and clinical significance of tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated factor 6 in patients with colon cancer
conclusions traf6 plays an important role in the onset of colon cancer; therefore, drugs targeting it may have great clinical significance in the treatment of this disease. results the positive expression rate of traf6 in tumor tissues was 66.7%, which was significantly higher than in normal paracancerous tissues (18.5%). the positive expression rate of traf6 was significantly correlated with d...
متن کاملDemyelination and inhibition of tumor necrosis factor (TNF).
The development of tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFalpha) inhibitor therapy is arguably the most significant achievement in the treatment of rheumatic diseases to date. One serious potential side effect associated with these agents is the onset of neurologic signs and symptoms. In this paper we will examine the relationship of TNFalpha antagonism and demyelinating disease. Reviewing early labor...
متن کاملTumor necrosis factor-alpha impairs intestinal phosphate absorption in colitis.
Phosphate homeostasis is critical for many physiological functions. Up to 85% of phosphate is stored in bone and teeth. The remaining 15% is distributed in cells. Phosphate absorption across the brush-border membrane (BBM) of enterocytes occurs mainly via a sodium-dependent pathway, which is mediated by type IIb sodium-phosphate cotransporters (NaPi-IIb). Patients of inflammatory bowel diseases...
