Abstract excerpt
Tumour necrosis factor (TNF) is known to induce apoptosis, but recently, TNF was shown to promote cell survival, a process regulated by phosphatidylinositol-3-OH kinase (PI3K) and the NFkappaB pathway. In this study, we investigated the relationship between the molecules implicated in regulating TNF-induced cell survival and apoptosis induced by TNF in a human head and neck squamous cell carcinoma cell line...
