Recent evidence suggests that macrophages and/or other nonparenchymal cells may release important mediators contributing to the hepatic necrosis induced by high doses of acetaminophen (APAP). The nature and causative role of these mediators has remained elusive, however. To investigate the role of t

The killing of L-M cells by murine tumor necrosis factor (mTNF) was investigated by a combination of drug, antiserum neutralization, and kinetic studies. Kinetic studies with '2SI-mTNF showed that the bulk of association of ligand with L-M cells peaked within 2 hr and the ligand was not degraded. Ce
TNF-cu is a multifunctional cytokine which is cytotoxic for some cell lines. In order to characterize the early genomic response to TNF-a, we have analyzed the induction of a sub-set of serum-inducible immediate early genes in WEHI-S and L929 fibrosarcoma cell lines, which are sensitive to TNF-a, an
Tumor necrosis factor-rY(TNF-a) is a mediator of liver injury. The objective of this study was to develop an in vitro model of TNF-mediated liver cell injury using the Hep G2 cell line. Hep G2 cells normally are insensitive to TNF' cytotoxicity, but they were rendered susceptible, or sensitized, to
