Tumor Necrosis Factor Receptors: Pleiotropic Signaling Complexes and Their Differential Effects
Since its discovery in 1975, TNFα has been a subject of intense study as it plays significant roles in both immunity and cancer. Such attention is well deserved as TNFα is unique in its engagement of pleiotropic signaling via its two receptors: TNFR1 and

Serum levels of tumor necrosis factor-like cytokine 1A and its receptors, death receptor 3 and decoy receptor 3, in patients with spondyloarthropathies: preliminary results from a cross-sectional study [PDF]
Introduction Tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-like cytokine 1A (TL1A) is a member of the TNF superfamily of cytokines, involved in regulation of the immune and inflammatory response. Recently, therapies aimed at blockade of the TL1A pathway have shown benefit

Tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) was initially recognized as a factor that causes the necrosis of tumors, but it has been recently identified to have additional important functions as a pathological component of autoimmune diseases. TNF-α binds to two

Role of tumor necrosis factor-alpha in the central nervous system: a focus on autoimmune disorders
Tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) is a pleiotropic immune cytokine that belongs to the TNF superfamily of receptor ligands. The cytokine exists as either a transmembrane or a soluble molecule, and targets two distinct receptors, TNF-α receptor 1 (TNFR1)

Tumor necrosis factor receptor cross‐talk [PDF]
Extensive research has been performed to unravel the mechanistic signaling pathways mediated by tumor necrosis factor receptor 1 (TNFR1), by contrast there is limited knowledge on cellular signaling upon activation of TNFR2. Recently published data have revealed that these two receptors not only function independently, but also can influence each other
