Journal ArticleDOI

Stabilization of the bioactivity of tumor necrosis factor by its soluble receptors.

TL;DR: It is reported here that in the presence of low concentrations of the sTNF-Rs, effects of TNF whose induction depend on prolonged treatment with this cytokine are augmented, reflecting an attenuation by the sST NF-Rs of spontaneous TNF activity decay.
Journal ArticleDOI

A tumor necrosis factor-binding protein purified to homogeneity from human urine protects cells from tumor necrosis factor toxicity.

TL;DR: It is suggested that this protein blocks the function of TNF by competing for TNF with the TNF receptor and not by interacting with the target cell.
Journal ArticleDOI

Soluble forms of tumor necrosis factor receptors (TNF-Rs). The cDNA for the type I TNF-R, cloned using amino acid sequence data of its soluble form, encodes both the cell surface and a soluble form of the receptor.

TL;DR: The soluble forms of the TNF‐Rs are structurally identical to the extracellular cytokine binding domains of these receptors and are consistent with the notion that the soluble forms are, at least partly, derived from the same transcripts that encode the cell surface receptors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Increased levels of soluble tumor necrosis factor receptors in the sera and synovial fluid of patients with rheumatic diseases.

TL;DR: Evaluation of serially obtained serum samples suggested that sTNF-R may be a useful parameter for monitoring RA disease activity and determination of SF levels could be of diagnostic value.
