Downregulation of endogenous TRAIL and its effect on the human cancer cell line KELLY [PDF]
Tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) has been shown to exert an unexpected pro-survival, pro-proliferative and pro-invasive effect on a subset of human cancer cell lines. Recent clinical studies report that increased expression

TNF Superfamily: A Growing Saga of Kidney Injury Modulators
Members of the TNF superfamily participate in kidney disease. Tumor necrosis factor (TNF) and Fas ligand regulate renal cell survival and inflammation, and therapeutic targeting improves the outcome of experimental renal injury.

Regulation of TNF-Related Apoptosis-Inducing Ligand Signaling by Glycosylation [PDF]
Tumor necrosis-factor related apoptosis-inducing ligand, also known as TRAIL or APO2L (Apo-2 ligand), is a cytokine of the TNF superfamily acknowledged for its ability to trigger selective apoptosis in tumor cells while being relatively safe towards normal cells.

Roles of TNF-Related Apoptosis-Inducing Ligand in Experimental Autoimmune Encephalomyelitis [PDF]
Abstract TRAIL, the TNF-related apoptosis-inducing ligand, induces apoptosis of tumor cells, but not normal cells; the roles of TRAIL in nontransformed tissues are unknown. Using a soluble TRAIL receptor, we examined the consequences of TRAIL blockade in an animal model of multiple sclerosis.

Expression of TRAIL and Fas in Primary Hyperparathyroidism
Aim: Differentiating between parathyroid lesions is still difficult and ambiguous. In cases of primary hyperparathyroidism, appropriate and prompt diagnosis is of great importance for effective treatment and follow-up.

PCTAIRE1-knockdown sensitizes cancer cells to TNF family cytokines. [PDF]
While PCTAIRE1/PCTK1/Cdk16 is overexpressed in malignant cells and is crucial in tumorigenesis, its function in apoptosis remains unclear. Here we investigated the role of PCTAIRE1 in apoptosis, especially in the extrinsic cell death pathway.

Identification of the biochemical signalling mechanisms underlying CD40 killing in colorectal cancer cells [PDF]
CD40 is a member of the tumour necrosis factor receptor (TNFR) superfamily and ligation by membrane- presented CD40 ligand (mCD40L), but not soluble agonists, causes extensive apoptosis in malignant epithelial cells, including colorectal carcinoma ...

TNF-Related Apoptosis Inducing Ligand in Ocular Cancers and Ocular Diabetic Complications [PDF]
TNF-related apoptosis inducing ligand (TRAIL) is an intensively studied cytokine, in particular for its anticancer activity. The discovery that conjunctival sac fluid contains extremely high levels of soluble TRAIL as compared to other body fluids suggested important implications in the context of the immunological surveillance of the eye, in ...

Trail (TNF-related apoptosis-inducing ligand) induces an inflammatory response in human adipocytes
High serum concentrations of TNF-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL), a member of the tumor necrosis factor protein family, are found in patients with increased BMI and serum lipid levels.

The Janus face of death receptor signalling during tumour immunoediting.
Cancer immune-surveillance is essential for the inhibition of carcinogenesis. Malignantly transformed cells can be recognised by both the innate and adaptive immune systems through different mechanisms.
