Role of NF-kB, p53, and p21 in the Regulation of TNF-α Mediated Apoptosis of Lymphocytes

Bulletin of Experimental Biology and Medicine Aims and scope

The effect of recombinant TNF-α on programmed death of donor lymphocytes was studied in vitro. The proapoptotic effect of this cytokine is realized through transcription factors and cell cycle inhibitors. Incubation of lymphocytes with recombinant TNF-α revealed increased levels of NF-kB and p21 and reducted content of nonphosphorylated p53.
