Recombinant protein corresponding to human TL1A. The extracellular domain of TL1A is fused to MBP.
TL1A, also known as tumor necrosis factor ligand superfamily member 15 (TNFSF15). TL1A acts as a co-stimulator of IFN-gamma secretion through binding to DR3 (death domain receptor 3 or TRAMP) and may play an important role in Th1-mediated diseases such as Crohns disease. In cells expressing DR3, TL1A induces NF-kappa-B activation and apoptosis. Decoy receptor 3 (DcR3) is also a receptor for TL1A. DcR3 can apparently neutralise the effect of TL1A, by inhibiting the TL1A-DR3 interaction, thereby inhibiting apoptosis. TL1A is specifically expressed on endothelial cells and is detected on monocytes, placenta, lung, liver, kidney, skeletal muscle, pancreas, spleen, prostate, small intestine and colon.
