The TNF-alpha Luciferase Reporter cell line is a stably transfected RAW264.7 cell line which expresses Renilla luciferase reporter gene under the transcriptional control of the TNF-alpha promoter. Tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) is one of the major proinflammatory cytokines and can induce systemic inflammation, apoptotic cell death, sepsis and cachexia. Dysregulation of TNF-alpha induction is often involved in various human diseases including inflammatory bowel disease, cancer and Alzheimers disease. The TNF-alpha induction by lipopolysaccharide (LPS), the Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) ligand, is shown in Figure 1.
