Tumor Necrosis Factor

Preferred Label : Tumor Necrosis Factor;

NCIt synonyms : TNF-Alpha; Tumor Necrosis Factor Ligand Superfamily Member 2; Tumor Necrosis Factor-alpha (macrophage-derived); TNFA; TNF Alpha; Tumor Necrosis Factor Alpha; TNF; TNF-A; Tumor Necrosis Factor-Alpha;

NCIt definition : Tumor necrosis factor (233 aa, 26 kDa) is encoded by the human TNF gene. This protein is involved in the induction of cytokine expression, the stimulation of cell proliferation and the positive regulation of cell differentiation.;

NCIt note : Tumor necrosis factor (TNF) is a serum glycoprotein produced by activated macrophages and other mammalian mononuclear leukocytes which has necrotizing activity against tumor cell lines and increases ability to reject tumor transplants.;
