What Does TNFSF Stand For?

TNFSF stands for Tumor Necrosis Factor Superfamily

TNFSF, or Tumor Necrosis Factor Superfamily, refers to a group of closely related proteins that play critical roles in regulating immune responses, cell survival, and apoptosis. The members of the TNFSF mediate various biological functions through their interactions with specific receptors, influencing processes such as inflammation, lymphocyte activation, and tissue homeostasis. Dysregulation of TNFSF signaling has been implicated in various diseases, including cancer, autoimmune disorders, and neurodegenerative conditions, making them significant targets for therapeutic intervention.
