Description
Purified recombinant Human TNF Receptor Type II protein
TNFRII is a member of the TNFR family of transmembrane proteins, and is expressed in immune cells and certain endothelial cells. It is a high affinity receptor for TNF-alpha but manifests a lower affinity to TNF-beta. Signaling through this receptor regulates various biological processes including cell proliferation, differentiation, apoptosis, lipid metabolism, coagulation, and neurotransmission. Soluble TNFRII is capable of inhibiting TNF-alpha induced activities by acting as a decoy receptor
