Tumour necrosis factor and Crohn's disease.
The production of several pro-inflammatory cytokines is increased in inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD). Experimental models of IBD have further defined the importance of specific cytokines for the induction of mucosal inflammation, by using specific neutralising antibodies, or by silencing cytokine genes in mice by using homologous recombination (knockout mice).' 2 Several therapeutic strategie...
متن کاملActivated macrophages promote Wnt signalling through tumour necrosis factor-α in gastric tumour cells
The activation of Wnt/beta-catenin signalling has an important function in gastrointestinal tumorigenesis. It has been suggested that the promotion of Wnt/beta-catenin activity beyond the threshold is important for carcinogenesis. We herein investigated the role of macrophages in the promotion of Wnt/beta-catenin activity in gastric tumorigenesis. We found beta-catenin nuclear accumulation in m...
متن کاملAnti-Tumour Necrosis Factor-α Therapy in Crohn’s Disease
Crohn’s disease is a chronic, relapsing, inflammatory disease of the gastro-intestinal tract. Manifestations of the disease may be severe, and lead to long-term therapy with a variety of medications and/or surgery. There are two main classifications of the disease, including the relapsing-remitting chronic active variety, and the penetrating or fistulising variety. Tumour necrosis factor-alpha ...
متن کاملSignal transduction by tumour necrosis factor and tumour necrosis factor related ligands and their receptors.
Many biological functions are regulated through interactions of extracellular molecules with their cognate cell surface receptors. The transduction of these signals by their receptors at the plasma membrane to the intracellular machinery results in such cellular activities as gene activation, protein phosphorylation, cell proliferation, and cell destruction. Though the kinetics of these activit...
متن کاملModulation of transmembrane signalling in HL-60 granulocytes by tumour necrosis factor-alpha.
Differentiated HL-60 granulocytes were used to study the mechanism by which tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF) enhances responses to N-formyl-methionyl-leucylphenylalanine (FMLP). Cultivation of differentiated HL-60 cells with 100 units of TNF/ml for 24 h resulted in a 3-fold increase in superoxide release and 4-fold increase in prostaglandin E2 production on stimulation with 1 microM-FMLP. On ...
