TRAIL receptor signaling regulation of chemosensitivity in vivo but not in vitro. [PDF]
Signaling by Tumor Necrosis Factor-Related Apoptosis Inducing Ligand (TRAIL) and Fas ligand (FasL) has been proposed to contribute to the chemosensitivity of tumor cells treated with various other anti-cancer agents.

Targeting tumor-necrosis factor receptor pathways for tumor immunotherapy [PDF]
With the success of ipilimumab and promise of programmed death-1 pathway-targeted agents, the field of tumor immunotherapy is expanding rapidly. Newer targets for clinical development include select members of the tumor necrosis factor receptor (TNFR) family.

Plasma Levels of Tumor Necrosis Factor α and Soluble Tumor Necrosis Factor Receptors in Patients With Narcolepsy [PDF]
Narcolepsy is a disabling sleep disorder characterized by excessive daytime sleepiness, cataplexy, hypnagogic hallucinations, and sleep paralysis. Recent studies suggest that the immune system might play a pathogenic role pointing to a possible involvement of inflammatory cytokines.We investigated a sample of 30 patients with narcolepsy in comparison ...

Tumor necrosis factor antagonists: structure, function and tuberculosis risks [PDF]
New therapeutic options bring new problems and also new knowledge about disease mechanisms. Ten years ago the first antagonist to tumor necrosis factor was first used to treat inflammatory diseases and the use of anti-cytokines has proved to be a ...

Background: Tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) initiates apoptosis in tumor cells upon binding to its cognate agonistic receptors, death receptors 4 and 5 (DR4 and DR5). The activity of the insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1)

Intrinsic cardiac adrenergic cells contribute to LPS-induced myocardial dysfunction
Yang et al report that intrinsic cardiac adrenergic cell-derived norepinephrine promotes myocardial dysfunction in response to LPS. They demonstrate norepinephrine produced by these cells activated β1-adrenergic receptors on cardiomyocytes increasing the
