The Tumor Necrosis Factor Ligand and Receptor Families

Bazzoni, Flavia, Beutler, Bruce·1996·New England Journal of Medicine

Abstract

Tumor necrosis factor (TNF) and lymphotoxin-α were isolated more than 10 years ago, on the basis of their ability to kill tumor cells in vitro and to cause hemorrhagic necrosis of transplantable tumors in mice.1 The complementary DNAs and genes encoding each protein were cloned immediately thereafter.2,3 Concurrently, a factor known as cachectin was isolated from mouse macrophages, sequenced, and shown to be identical to TNF.4,5 Cachectin was identified not as a cytolysin, but as a catabolic hormone that suppressed the expression of lipoprotein lipase and other anabolic enzymes in fat.68 Still other studies demonstrated the powerful . . .

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.
