Preferred Label : TNFR2 Signaling Pathway;
Alternative definition : BIOCARTA: TNFR2 is the receptor for the 171 amino acid 19 kD TNF-beta (a.k.a. lymphotoxin).
TNF-beta is produced by activated lymphocytes and can be cytotoxic to many tumor and
other cells. In neutrophils, endothelial cells and osteoclasts TNF-beta can lead to
activation while in many other cell types it can lead to increased expression of MHC
and adhesion molecules. (This definition may be outdated - see the DesignNote.);
