Tumor Necrosis Factor (Ligand) Superfamily, Member 15 (TNFSF15) (Active) protein
Description
TL-1A belongs to the TNF superfamily of ligands. It is expressed predominantly in endothelial cells, and to a lesser extent in placenta, lung, kidney, skeletal muscle, pancreas, small intestine and colon. TL-1A inhibits endothelial cell proliferation and angiogenesis, and has been shown to induce NF kb activation, caspase activity, and apoptosis in responding cell lines. TL-1A interacts with TNFRSF25/DR3 receptor, but can also bind to a decoy receptor TNFRSF21/DR6. Alternative Names: VEGI protein, TNFSF15 protein, TL-1A protein, TLA 1, TL1A, TLA 1 protein, TLA-1, TLA-1 protein
