    basic FUNCTION
  • TNF-related apoptosis inducing ligand (TRAIL), independent of DAP3
  • inducing appoptosis in the brain
  • with TNFRSF10A and TNFRSF10B, play an important role in inflammation
  • induces apoptosis through its cognate receptors death receptor TNFRSF10A and TNFRSF10B, preferentially in malignant cells
  • promising for anticancer therapy because it induces apoptosis in cancer cells with little or no toxicity to normal cells
  • TNFSF10 and CASP8 expression levels were positively correlated with apoptosis in osteosarcoma
  • CELLULAR PROCESS cell life, cell death/apoptosis

    INTERACTION
    DNA
    RNA
    small molecule
    protein
  • TNFRSF10,triggering the activation of MAPK8/JNK, caspase 8, caspase 3
  • APO2L ligand
  • CFLAR (is not only a central antiapoptotic modulator of TNFSF10-mediated apoptosis but also an inhibitor of TNFSF10-induced NF-kappaB activation and subsequent proinflammatory target gene expression)
  • interacting with PLSCR3 (TNFSF10-induced activation of PKC-delta mediates regulation of the PLSCR3-induced changes in cardiolipin)
  • interacting with HOMER1
  • CASP4 is involved in induction of apoptosis by TNF-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TNFSF10) in human melanoma cells
  • TRADD plays a survival role in TNFSF10 signaling
  • interacting with TRADD (TRADD is critical for resistance to TNFSF10-induced cell death through NFKB activation)
  • TNFSF10-mediated tumoricidal activity of macrophages can be stimulated by SERPINF1
  • SERPINF1 mediates the induction of TNFSF10 expression by PPARG
  • PPP3R1-induced TNFSF10 expression is mediated by NFKB
  • interaction of SH3KBP1 with MAP3K4 was increased during the late phase of TNFSF10 incubation, suggesting that sustained MAPK14 and HSPB1 phosphorylation protects cells by preventing further cell death
  • TNK2 is required for TNFSF10-induced cell death in multiple epithelial cell lines
  • TNFSF10 -induced lysosomal membrane permeabilization is mediated by the multifunctional sorting protein PACS2 and repressed by the E3 ligases BIRC2 and BIRC3
  • CTSD enzymatic activity is a new factor affecting sensitivity of breast cancer cells to TNFSF10
  • FGF2 was superior, stimulating cell infiltration and angiogenesis better than TNFSF10 and VEGFA
  • SPAG6 may regulate apoptosis in SCN4A through the TNFSF10 signal pathway
