  2. Tumor necrosis factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tumor_necrosis_factor

    TNF transcription is activated by a variety of signaling pathways and transcription factors, depending on the cell type and stimulus. TNF transcription does not depend on the synthesis of new proteins, enabling rapid activation of the gene. [9] TNF gene expression is regulated by a proximal promoter region consisting of approximately 200 base ...

  3. Lymphotoxin alpha - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lymphotoxin_alpha

    Lymphotoxin-alpha (LT-α) formerly known as tumor necrosis factor-beta (TNF-β) [5] [6] is a protein that in humans is encoded by the LTA gene. [ 7 ] [ 8 ] Belonging to the hematopoietic cell line, LT-α exhibits anti-proliferative activity and causes the cellular destruction of tumor cell lines. [ 7 ]

  4. Tumor necrosis factor superfamily - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tumor_necrosis_factor...

    The tumor necrosis factor (TNF) superfamily is a protein superfamily of type II transmembrane proteins containing TNF homology domain and forming trimers. Members of this superfamily can be released from the cell membrane by extracellular proteolytic cleavage and function as a cytokine .

  5. Inflammatory cytokine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inflammatory_cytokine

    Pro-inflammatory cytokines such as IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α also trigger pathological pain. [1] While IL-1β is released by monocytes and macrophages, it is also present in nociceptive DRG neurons. IL-6 plays a role in neuronal reaction to an injury. TNF-α is a well known proinflammatory cytokine present in neurons and the glia.

  6. Lymphotoxin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lymphotoxin

    Lymphotoxin is a member of the tumor necrosis factor (TNF) superfamily of cytokines, whose members are responsible for regulating the growth and function of lymphocytes and are expressed by a wide variety of cells in the body. [1]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Roblox_games

    Rift Royale is a battle royale game developed by Easy.gg, the developers behind BedWars and Islands. The game was inspired by Fortnite Battle Royale, and was an attempt to create an "awesome competitive game" within the Roblox platforms limitations. In August 2022, the game was shut down following a mass wave of exploiters rendering the game ...

  8. TNF receptor superfamily - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TNF_receptor_superfamily

    In humans, there are 29 known family members of the TNF receptor superfamily. [6] [7] Historically, the family members have been numerically classified as TNFRSF#, where # denotes the member number, sometimes followed a letter. [2] Some newer additions to the TNF family remain unnumbered, however, such as the TNF receptor superfamily member ...

  9. Lymphotoxin beta - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lymphotoxin_beta

    Lymphotoxin beta is a type II membrane protein of the TNF family.It anchors lymphotoxin-alpha to the cell surface through heterotrimer formation. The predominant form on the lymphocyte surface is the lymphotoxin-alpha 1/beta 2 complex (e.g. 1 molecule alpha/2 molecules beta) and this complex is the primary ligand for the lymphotoxin-beta receptor.
