Summary
Tnf pre-treated macrophages exhibit endotoxin tolerance, i.e. less cytokine production, towards LPS challenge. Tnf-mediated cross-tolerization is mediated by suppression of LPS-induced signalling and chromatin remodelling.
Tnf is essential to mount an acute inflammatory response to dsDNA in the endothelium.
Mirlet7f and its target Tnfaip3 regulate immune responses to Mycobacterium tuberculosis and control bacterial burden by augmenting the production of Tnf and Il1b.
InnateDB Annotation from Orthologs
Summary
[Homo sapiens] TNF (TNF-alpha) is an important mediator of inflammation, apoptosis, and the development of secondary lymphoid structures and LRRFIP1 represses TNF expression.
[Homo sapiens] TNF pre-treated macrophages exhibit endotoxin tolerance, i.e. less cytokine production, towards LPS challenge. TNF-mediated cross-tolerization is mediated by suppression of LPS-induced signalling and chromatin remodelling.
[Homo sapiens] TNF is essential to mount an acute inflammatory response to dsDNA in the endothelium. (Demonstrated in murine model)
[Homo sapiens] IFN gamma creates a primed chromatin environment in macrophages to augment TLR-induced TNF transcription
[Homo sapiens] Secreted CCNA2 (CCN1) promotes anti-inflammatory cytokine IL10 release from epithelial cells via integrin αVβ6-PKC, and this subsequently suppresses TNF, CXCL2 and neutrophil infiltration in the lungs.
[Homo sapiens] DEFB103A and RNASE7 are induced in human umbilical endothelial cells (HUVECs) by classical inflammatory cytokines such as: IFNG, IL1B and TNF.
Entrez Gene
Summary This gene encodes a multifunctional proinflammatory cytokine that belongs to the tumor necrosis factor (TNF) superfamily. Members of this family are classified based on primary sequence, function, and structure. This protein is synthesized as a type-II transmembrane protein and is reported to be cleaved into products that exert distinct biological functions. It plays an important role in the innate immune response as well as regulating homeostasis but is also implicated in diseases of chronic inflammation. In mouse deficiency of this gene is associated with defects in response to bacterial infection, with defects in forming organized follicular dendritic cell networks and germinal centers, and with a lack of primary B cell follicles. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2013]
