Ultraviolet Radiation Effects on Human Keratinocyte ICAM-1 Expression: UV-Induced Inhibition of Cytokine-Induced ICAM-1 mRNA Expression Is Transient, Differentially Restored for IFNγ Versus TNFα, and Followed by ICAM-1 Induction Via a TNFα-Like Pathway

open access: yesJournal of Investigative Dermatology, 1992
Human keratinocytes (KC) during the course of inflammatory dermatoses strongly express the surface molecule ICAM-1, which plays an important role in the generation of the epidermal inflammatory infiltrate by mediating leukocyte-keratinocyte interactions.

Brain Protection from Stroke with Intravenous TNFα Decoy Receptor-Trojan Horse Fusion Protein [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Cerebral Blood Flow & Metabolism, 2012
Tumor necrosis factor (TNF)- α is produced in brain in response to acute cerebral ischemia, and promotes neuronal apoptosis. Biologic TNF inhibitors (TNFIs), such as the etanercept, cannot be developed as new stroke treatments because these large molecule drugs do not cross the blood–brain barrier (BBB).

A Unique Case of Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome Secondary to Rheumatoid Lung Disease With Administration of Anti-Tumor Necrosis Factor Alpha (TNFα) Agent

open access: yesCureus, 2023
Patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) may experience complications directly from the disease process or from immune-modulating agents used to treat RA. Adalimumab is a recombinant human monoclonal antibody directed against tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFα) which has been increasingly used in the management of inflammatory and autoimmune diseases ...

Correlation of Lipopolysaccharide Endotoxin Level in Cotton Dust with the Increase of TNFα Level and the Decline of Lung Function in Cotton Spinning Factory Workers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) endotoxin contained in cotton dust may cause airway inflammation and decline of lung function when inhaled, which eventually leads to respiratory symptoms.

PRODUCTION OF PROINFLAMMATORY CYTOKINES AND ALPHA-2-MACROGLOBULIN BY PERIPHERAL BLOOD CELLS IN THE PATIENTS WITH COLORECTAL CANCER

open access: yesМедицинская иммунология, 2016
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most common cancer worldwide, being quite complicated, with respect to diagnostics and postoperative prognosis. Proinflammatory cytokines are shown to be involved into CRC pathogenesis. However, the changes in alpha-2-

Atherosusceptible Shear Stress Activates Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress to Promote Endothelial Inflammation. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Atherosclerosis impacts arteries where disturbed blood flow renders the endothelium susceptible to inflammation. Cytokine activation of endothelial cells (EC) upregulates VCAM-1 receptors that target monocyte recruitment to atherosusceptible regions ...

Crystal structure of TNFα complexed with a poxvirus MHC-related TNF binding protein [PDF]

open access: yesNature Structural & Molecular Biology, 2009
The poxvirus 2L protein binds tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNFalpha) to inhibit host antiviral and immune responses. The 2.8-A 2L-TNFalpha structure reveals three symmetrically arranged 2L molecules per TNFalpha trimer. 2L resembles class I major histocompatibility complex (MHC) molecules but lacks a peptide-binding groove and beta2-microglobulin light
