Cooperation of Both TNF Receptors in Inducing Apoptosis: Involvement of the TNF Receptor-Associated Factor Binding

فاکتور نکروزدهنده تومور آلفا و راهکارهای مهار آن: مقاله مروری

Tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) is a pro-inflammatory cytokine produced by a variety of cells, including hematopoietic and non-hematopoietic cells, malignant cells, macrophages, B lymphocytes, T lymphocytes, natural killer cells, neutrophils, astrocytes, endothelial cells, and smooth muscle cells. TNF-α is a homo-trimeric molecular whose individual subunits are composed of antiparallel beta...

اندازه گیری آپوپتوز سلول های تک هست های خون محیطی، سطح سرمی فاکتور نکروز دهنده تومورآلفا و پذیرنده نوع یک آن در بیماران ایرانی مبتلا به سپتی سمی و مقایسه آن با افراد سالم

Background and Aim: The present study was designed to compare the cell death, circulating levels of tumor necrosis factor-α and tumor necrosis factor type-I receptor in Iranian patients with sepsis and normal controls. Materials and methods: Twenty-two patients with sepsis were included in this study. After blood collection, the serum circulating levels of TNF- and TNFRI measured with ELISA ki...

Reovirus-induced apoptosis is mediated by TRAIL.

Members of the tumor necrosis factor (TNF) receptor superfamily and their activating ligands transmit apoptotic signals in a variety of systems. We now show that the binding of TNF-related, apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) to its cellular receptors DR5 (TRAILR2) and DR4 (TRAILR1) mediates reovirus-induced apoptosis. Anti-TRAIL antibody and soluble TRAIL receptors block reovirus-induced apoptos...

The C-terminal tails of tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) and Fas receptors have opposing functions in Fas-associated death domain (FADD) recruitment and can regulate agonist-specific mechanisms of receptor activation.

Members of the tumor necrosis factor (TNF) superfamily of receptors such as Fas/CD95 and the TNF-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) receptors DR4 and DR5 induce apoptosis by recruiting adaptor molecules and caspases. The central adaptor molecule for these receptors is a death domain-containing protein, FADD, which binds to the activated receptor via death domain-death domain interactions...
