Abstract excerpt
The human lung adenocarcinoma cell line A549 is known to be resistant to tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha)-mediated tumor cell lysis in spite of the expression of 55 kDa TNF receptor (TNF-R55) mRNA and its cell surface protein. In this study, we investigated the mechanism of TNF-alpha resistance and the role of two types of TNF receptors (TNF-R55 and TNF-R75 (75 kDa TNF receptor)). TNF-R55 or TNF-R75 cDNA...
