| Background: |
Lymphotoxin-alpha (LT-alpha ), also known as Tumor Necrosis Factor-beta (TNF-beta ), is a member of the TNF Superfamily. Human LT-alpha /TNF-beta is a 22 kDa protein that shares 73% amino acid sequence identity with mouse and rat LT-alpha /TNF-beta. Secreted LT-alpha forms homotrimers that bind and activate TNF RI/TNFRSF1A, TNF RII/TNFRSF1B, and HVEM/TNFRSF14. LT-alpha /TNF-beta also forms heterotrimers with plasma membrane-localized LT-beta to bind and activate the LT-beta R/TNFRSF3. In addition to its cytotoxic action on tumor cells, LT-alpha /TNF-beta mediates lymph node development, inflammation, and immune function. LT-alpha /TNF-beta is expressed in activated T- and B lymphocytes and contributes to autoimmune disease. |
