TNF receptor superfamily - Wikipedia
The tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily (TNFRSF) is a protein superfamily of cytokine receptors characterized by the ability to bind tumor necrosis factors (TNFs) via an extracellular cysteine -rich domain. [2][3] With the exception of nerve growth factor (NGF), all TNFs are homologous to the archetypal TNF-alpha. [4] .
Tumor Necrosis Factor Receptor - an overview - ScienceDirect
Tumor Necrosis Factor Receptor (TNFR) refers to a family of membrane proteins that play a crucial role in activating cell death pathways and regulating gene expression for cellular survival and differentiation.
The TNF-TNFR Family of Co-signal Molecules - PubMed
Costimulatory signals initiated by the interaction between the tumor necrosis factor (TNF) ligand and cognate TNF receptor (TNFR) superfamilies promote clonal expansion, differentiation, and survival of antigen-primed CD4 + and CD8 + T cells and have a pivotal role in T-cell-medi …

Jan 25, 2021 · Here we present a biochemical and structural characterisation of the small molecule-stabilised TNF-TNFR1 complex, providing insights into how a distorted TNF trimer can alter signalling...
TNF alpha and the TNF receptor superfamily: structure ...
Aug 1, 2000 · TNF alpha exerts many of its effects by binding, as a trimer, to either a 55 kDa cell membrane receptor termed TNFR-1 or a 75 kDa cell membrane receptor termed TNFR-2. Both these receptors belong to the so-called TNF receptor superfamily. The superfamily includes FAS, CD40, CD27, and RANK.
The TNF-α/TNFR2 Pathway: Targeting a Brake to Release the ...
Here, we review the role of the TNFR2 signaling pathway in tolerance and the equilibrium of T cell responses and its connections with oncogenesis. We analyze recent discoveries concerning the targeting of TNFR2 in cancer, as well as the advantages, limitations, and …
Exploring TNFR1: from discovery to targeted therapy development
Tumor necrosis factor receptor 1 (TNFR1) is a protein located on the surface of cells that primarily transmits signals by interacting with tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and participates in biological processes such as inflammation, cell survival, and apoptosis.
