Soluble TNF receptor production by activated T lymphocytes: differential effects of acute and chronic exposure to TNF.
Soluble tumour necrosis factor receptors (sTNF-R) are up-regulated at sites of chronic inflammation such as rheumatoid synovial joints. The p75 sTNF-R is the more abundant, suggesting an important role for this TNF inhibitor in regulating TNF bioactivity in vivo. As the precise cellular source of th...
