Recombinant Tumor Necrosis Factor-Alpha

Preferred Label : Recombinant Tumor Necrosis Factor-Alpha;

NCIt synonyms : TNF-Alpha; Cachectin; Tumor Necrosis Factor (TNF-alpha); TNFA; Therapeutic Tumor Necrosis Factor-Alpha;

NCIt related terms : SONERMIN;

NCIt definition : A recombinant therapeutic agent which is chemically identical to or similar to the endogenous cytokine tumor necrosis factor-alpha with antineoplastic properties. Tumor necrosis factor-alpha binds to and activates death receptors on the cell surface, resulting in apoptosis and cell death by the p53-independent extrinsic pathway. This agent also disrupts tumor vascularization. (NCI04);
