Characterization of herpes virus entry mediator as a factor linked to obesity.

Obesity (Silver Spring, Md.) - 1 Feb 2010

Bassols Judit, Moreno Jose M, Ortega Francisco, Ricart Wifredo, Fernandez-Real Jose M

Abstract excerpt

Herpes virus entry mediator (HVEM) is a member of the tumor necrosis factor (TNF) receptor superfamily (TNFRSF14), which serves as a receptor for herpes viruses and cytokines such as lymphotoxin-alpha (LT-alpha) and LIGHT (lymphotoxin-like inducible protein that competes with glycoprotein D for herpes virus entry on T cells). We aimed to explore the associations of HVEM with human obesity. HVEM gene expression...
