Abstract excerpt
Tumor necrosis factor (TNF) is a potent multi-functional cytokine with a homeostatic role in host defence. In case of deregulation, TNF is implicated in numerous pathologies. The latent membrane protein-1 (LMP1) is expressed by Epstein-Barr virus during viral latency and displaying properties of a constitutively activated member of the TNF receptor family. Both TNFR1 and LMP1 share a similar set of proximal...
