Active Recombinant Rat TNF Protein

• Cat.No.: TNF-251R
• Product Overview: Recombinant Rat TNF Protein without tag was expressed in E. coli.

Specification

• Species: Rat
• Source: E.coli
• Description: Tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) is an inflammatory cytokine secreted by macrophages, monocytes, neutrophils, T cells, and NK-cells following stimulation by bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS). TNF-α signal activation occurs through two receptors, TNFR1 and TNFR2. TNFR1 is expressed on most cell types, unlike TNFR2, which is expressed mainly on immune cells. TNF-α functions to stimulate phagocytosis in macrophages, chemoattract neutrophils, increase insulin resistance, and induce fever.
