Abstract excerpt
Sphingosine, the product of enzymatic degradation of sphingomyelin, displays a high cytotoxic activity and is accumulated in animal organs under the action of the tumour necrosis factor (TNF alpha). To elucidate the role of sphingosine in the realization of TNF cytotoxicity, TNF mutants were obta...
