Abstract excerpt
A20 [also known as TNFAIP3 (tumour necrosis factor α-induced protein 3)] restricts and terminates inflammatory responses through modulation of the ubiquitination status of central components in NF-κB (nuclear factor κB), IRF3 (interferon regulatory factor 3) and apoptosis signalling cascades. The phenotype of mice with full or conditional A20 deletion illustrates that A20 expression is essential to prevent...
