Epigenetic regulation of tumor necrosis factor alpha.
Tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha) is a potent cytokine which regulates inflammation via the induction of adhesion molecules and chemokine expression. Its expression is known to be regulated in a complex manner with transcription, message turnover, message splicing, translation, and protein cleavage from the cell surface all being independently regulated. This study examined both cell line...
متن کاملTumor 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 کاملEvaluation of Tumor Necrosis Factor Alpha Polymorphism Frequencies in Endometriosis
Background The pro-inflammatory cytokine, tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), is a pathogenic element for a number of disorders. Previous studies have reported that the -1031 T/C and -238 G/A polymorphisms in the promoter region of the TNF-α gene are important factors in reproductive-related disorders. One of the most common gynecological diseases of women during the reproductive years is endo...
متن کاملNur77 as a survival factor in tumor necrosis factor signaling.
The immediate-early gene Nur77, which encodes an orphan nuclear receptor, is rapidly induced by various stress stimuli, including tumor necrosis factor (TNF). Nur77 has been implicated in mediating apoptosis, particularly in T cells and tumor cells. We report here that Nur77 can play a role in antagonizing apoptosis in TNF signaling. Nur77 expression is strongly induced by TNF. Interestingly, u...
متن کاملRedox-dependent regulation of epidermal growth factor receptor signaling
Tyrosine phosphorylation-dependent cell signaling represents a unique feature of multicellular organisms, and is important in regulation of cell differentiation and specialized cell functions. Multicellular organisms also contain a diverse family of NADPH oxidases (NOXs) that have been closely linked with tyrosine kinase-based cell signaling and regulate tyrosine phosphorylation via reversible ...
