Tumor necrosis factor (TNF-alpha ), also known as cachectin and TNFSF2, is the prototypic ligand of the TNF superfamily and family. The 26 kDa type II transmembrane protein is assembled intracellularly to form a noncovalently linked homotrimer. Rabbit TNF-alpha is 235 amino acids (aa) in length and contains a 35 aa cytoplasmic domain, a 21 aa transmembrane region, and a 179 extracellular domain (ECD). Cleavage of membrane bound TNF-alpha by TACE/ADAM17 releases a 55 kDa soluble trimeric form of TNF-alpha. Rabbit TNF-alpha is 79% and 78% aa identical to human and mouse TNF-alpha, respectively. TNF-alpha is produced by several lymphoid cells as well as by astrocytes, endothelial cells, and smooth muscle cells. TNF-alpha binds TNF RI and TNF RII present on virtually all cell types where it triggers the activation of multiple signal transduction pathways and modulates the expression of a wide variety of genes.

Scientific Data Images for Rabbit TNF‑ alpha Antibody
Cytotoxicity Induced by TNF‑ alpha and Neutralization by Rabbit TNF‑ alpha Antibody.
Recombinant Rabbit TNF-a (Catalog # 5670-TG) induces cytotoxicity in the the L-929 mouse fibroblast cell line in a dose-dependent manner (orange line), as measured by Resazurin. Cytotoxicity elicited by Recombinant Rabbit TNF-a (0.25 ng/mL) is neutralized (green line) by increasing concentrations of Mouse Anti-Rabbit TNF-a Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB5670). The ND50 is typically 0.4-2.4 µg/mL in the presence of the metabolic inhibitor actinomycin D (1 µg/mL).Applications for Rabbit TNF‑ alpha Antibody
Application
Recommended Usage
Neutralization
Measured by its ability to neutralize TNF‑ alpha -induced cytotoxicity in the L‑929 mouse fibroblast cell line. Matthews, N. and M. L. Neale (1987) in Lymphokines and Interferons, A Practical Approach. Clemens, M. J. et al. (eds): IRL Press. 221. The Neutralization Dose (ND50) is typically 0.4-2.4 µg/mL in the presence of 0.25 ng/mL Recombinant Rabbit TNF‑ alpha and the metabolic inhibitor actinomycin D (1 µg/mL).
