Expression of tumor necrosis factor-alpha–converting enzyme and tumor necrosis factor-alpha in human myocarditis

Journal of the American College of Cardiology, 2000
We determined whether tumor necrosis factor-alpha-converting enzyme (TACE) is expressed with tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) in myocarditis.Tumor necrosis factor-alpha-converting enzyme, which has recently been identified as belonging to the family of metalloproteinase disintegrin proteins, is responsible for the conversion of TNF-alpha ...

Identification of a tumor necrosis factor-responsive element in the tumor necrosis factor alpha gene

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 1991
The regulation by tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF) of its own promoter has been investigated by transient transfection and nuclear protein binding assays. In human K652 erythroleukemia cells TNF produced an 8-10-fold activation of the human TNF promoter linked to the chloramphenicol acetyltransferase gene.

Tumor Necrosis Factor Alpha-Mediated Asthma? [PDF]

International Archives of Allergy and Immunology, 2012
Thus the pathophysiology of allergic asthma is traditionally explained by mast celland/or Th2 cell-mediated airway inflammation, which is a manifestation of the acquired immune response. On the other hand, recent studies have identified various other important molecules associated with phenotypes of asthma, including tumor necrosis factor (TNF)[2, 3] ,
