Tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated factors (TRAFs)--a family of adapter proteins that regulates life and death.
The signaling pathways that regulate cell survival are beginning to be defined. Receptors such as Fas and tumor necrosis factor receptor type I (TNFRI) have been shown to be capable of initiating programmed cell death. These death receptors initiate signal transduction pathways that culminate in caspase activation and apoptosis. A number of the intracellular molecules in these signaling pathway...
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...
متن کاملTARGETING TNF-RECEPTOR ASSOCIATED FACTORS (TRAFs) FOR THERAPEUTIC INTERVENTION
TNF-Receptors Associated Factors (TRAFs) are the molecules that upon engagement of the TNF-receptor (TNFR) by a TNF-family ligand come first in contact with the activated TNFR, initially acting as docking molecules for kinases and other effector proteins that are recruited to the activated receptor. TRAFs later regulate the subcellular relocalization of the receptor-ligand complex and finally t...
متن کاملTumor necrosis factor receptor-associated factor 2 mediates mitochondrial autophagy.
BACKGROUND Tumor necrosis factor (TNF) signaling protects against ischemia/reperfusion-induced cardiomyocyte death, in vitro, ex vivo, and in vivo. TNF-receptor-associated factor 2 (TRAF2), an E3 ubiquitin ligase, coordinates cytoprotective signaling downstream of both TNF receptors, via unclear mechanisms. Noting that TRAF2 is recruited to mitochondria, and that autophagic removal of ubiquitin...
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...
