ELISA Data Immobilized Ferret TNF-alpha, His Tag at 1μg/ml (100μl/well) on the plate. Dose response curve for Human TNFR2, hFc Tag with the EC50 of 10.2ng/ml determined by ELISA.

Background :
Tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha), also known as cachectin and TNFSF2, is the prototypic ligand of the TNF superfamily. It is a pleiotropic molecule that plays a central role in inflammation, immune system development, apoptosis, and lipid metabolism.Cytokine that binds to TNFRSF1A/TNFR1 and TNFRSF1B/TNFBR. It is mainly secreted by macrophages and can induce cell death of certain tumor cell lines. It is potent pyrogen causing fever by direct action or by stimulation of interleukin-1 secretion and is implicated in the induction of cachexia, Under certain conditions it can stimulate cell proliferation and induce cell differentiation.

Synonyms :
APC1 protein; Cachectin; DIF; TNF; TNFalpha; TNFATNF; TNFSF1A; TNFSF2; TNFA; TNFα; DIF; TNFSF2;TNF-alpha
