Abstract excerpt
TNF is an important inflammatory mediator and a target for intervention. TNF is produced by many cell types and is involved in innate inflammation as well as adaptive immune responses.

However, as the complete knockout of TNF or its receptors has effects on multiple cell types as well as...
