Abstract

Proprotein convertases (PCs) have been proposed to play a role in tumor necrosis factor‐α converting enzyme (TACE) processing/activation. Using the furin‐deficient LoVo cells, as well as the furin‐proficient synoviocytes and HT1080 cells expressing the furin inhibitor α 1‐PDX, we demonstrate that furin activity alone is not sufficient for effective maturation and activation of the TACE enzyme. Data from in vitro and in vivo cleavage assays indicate that PACE‐4, PC5/PC6, PC1 and PC2 can directly cleave the TACE protein and/or peptide. PC inhibition in macrophages reduced the release of soluble TNF‐α from transmembrane pro‐TNF‐α. We therefore conclude that furin, in addition to other candidate PCs, is involved in TACE maturation and activation.

  • Adam17 and Arg2 proteins affect Hif-1α stability and activity by regulating production of tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α) and nitric oxide, respectively, whereas Mmp3 has key roles in numerous physiological processes.

    “The Adam17 and Arg2 proteins affect Hif-1α stability and activity by regulating production of tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α) 31,32 and nitric oxide, respectively 33,34 , whereas Mmp3 has key roles in numerous physiological processes 35 .”

    From The yak genome and adaptation to life at high altitude (2012) · cites this paper as [31]

    The Introduction (page not available) identifies ADAM17/TACE as an enzyme that cleaves TNF-α into a soluble form. Section 3.5 reports that inhibiting TACE processing reduces TNF-α release. The paper does not establish the attributed effect on HIF-1α stability or activity; the Arg2 and Mmp3 clauses carry separate citations. (LLM, conf=0.84)

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
