TNF can trigger two opposing responses: cell survival and cell death. TNFR1 activates caspases that orchestrate apoptosis but some cell types switch to a necrotic death when treated with caspase inhib
The importance of regulatory T cells (Treg) for immune tolerance is well recognized, yet the signaling molecules influencing their suppressive activity are relatively poorly understood. We identified
WT (n = 13) and Lcn-2 KO mice (n = 12) were subjected to NTS and followed for 7 days. cDNA isolated from lymph nodes was analyzed for the expression of the respective genes. The respective gene/HPRT r
The volume-regulated anion channel (VRAC) is a hexameric complex formed by LRRC8 proteins. VRACs are responsible for the regulatory volume decrease (RVD) after hypotonic cell swelling by mediating the
