The levels of the antioxidant enzyme manganese superoxide dismutase (Mn-SOD) are frequently decreased in tumor cells and increased in normal cells upon treatment with ionizing radiation. We studied Mn-SOD at different stages during the neoplastic conversion of radiation-initiated Syrian hamster embr
A mutant Escherichia coli lipopolysaccharide (LPS) lacking myristoyl fatty acid markedly stimulates the activity of manganese superoxide dismutase (MnSOD) without inducing tumor necrosis factor ␣ (TNF␣) production by human monocytes (Tian et al., 1998, Am J Physiol 275:C740.), suggesting that induct
## Abstract The proinflammatory cytokine tumor necrosis factor (TNF) α is mainly produced in cells from the monocyte/macrophage lineage. TNFα is also a key signaling molecule in the liver functioning as an important physiological and pathogenic mediator. In hepatocytes or human hepatoma cells TNFα
