Therapeutic Targets of the TNF Superfamily

The book "Therapeutic Targets of the TNF Superfamily" offers a comprehensive analysis of the tumor necrosis factor (TNF) superfamily, which plays a significant role in various biological processes. This family of cytokines interacts with a corresponding superfamily of receptors and is crucial for the regulation of immune responses, cell activation, proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis. The publication highlights the complex interactions between TNF ligands and their receptors, which are central to the development and function of the immune system. With over 20 identified human TNF ligands and more than 30 associated receptors, the diversity and complexity of these interactions become evident. The book is aimed at professionals and researchers seeking a deeper understanding of the TNF superfamily and its therapeutic targets.
