Description

TNF-α drives NF-κB and MAPK signaling cascades central to inflammation, apoptosis, and tumor microenvironment remodeling, making precise functional activity essential for meaningful in vitro results. This recombinant human TNF-α (residues 77–233) demonstrates an ED50 of 10–40 pg/mL in L-929 cytotoxicity assays with actinomycin D, confirming high signaling potency suitable for apoptosis and cell viability studies, NF-κB reporter assays, and dose–response characterization in immune cell activation experiments. Endotoxin levels below 1.0 EU/μg eliminate LPS-driven artifacts that confound TNF-specific readouts in primary macrophage or dendritic cell cultures, supporting use in in vivo tumor biology models and as a reference standard in cytokine detection platforms such as ELISA. The C-terminal His-tagged construct, expressed in *E. coli* and purified to greater than 95% homogeneity, provides a suitable basis for antibody development workflows including immunogen preparation and positive-control validation.

Target Background

Function

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. Impairs regulatory T-cells (Treg) function in individuals with rheumatoid arthritis via FOXP3 dephosphorylation. Upregulates the expression of protein phosphatase 1 (PP1), which dephosphorylates the key 'Ser-418' residue of FOXP3, thereby inactivating FOXP3 and rendering Treg cells functionally defective. Key mediator of cell death in the anticancer action of BCG-stimulated neutrophils in combination with DIABLO/SMAC mimetic in the RT4v6 bladder cancer cell line. Induces insulin resistance in adipocytes via inhibition of insulin-induced IRS1 tyrosine phosphorylation and insulin-induced glucose uptake. Induces GKAP42 protein degradation in adipocytes which is partially responsible for TNF-induced insulin resistance. Plays a role in angiogenesis by inducing VEGF production synergistically with IL1B and IL6.; The TNF intracellular domain (ICD) form induces IL12 production in dendritic cells.
