143 results about "Tumor necrosis factor receptor" patented technology

The tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily (TNFRSF) is a protein superfamily of cytokine receptors characterized by the ability to bind tumor necrosis factors (TNFs) via an extracellular cysteine-rich domain. With the exception of nerve growth factor (NGF), all TNFs are homologous to the archetypal TNF-alpha. In their active form, the majority of TNF receptors form trimeric complexes in the plasma membrane. Accordingly, most TNF receptors contain transmembrane domains (TMDs), although some can be cleaved into soluble forms (e.g. TNFR1), and some lack a TMD entirely (e.g. DcR3). In addition, most TNF receptors require specific adaptor protein such as TRADD, TRAF, RIP and FADD for downstream signalling. TNF receptors are primarily involved in apoptosis and inflammation, but they can also take part in other signal transduction pathways, such as proliferation, survival, and differentiation. TNF receptors are expressed in a wide variety of tissues in mammals, especially in leukocytes.

Immunoactivating Antigen-Binding Molecule

It was discovered that the use of an antigen-binding molecule having a cancer-specific antigen-binding domain, and a TNF superfamily-binding domain or a TNF receptor superfamily-binding domain enables agonist activity against a factor belonging to the TNF superfamily or the TNF receptor superfamily to be exhibited only in the presence of cancer-specific antigen-expressing cells, thus leading to activation of immune cells and thereby maintain anti-tumor activity while avoiding side effects such as hepatotoxicity. It was also discovered that concomitant use of the antigen-binding molecule with an antigen-binding molecule having a cancer-specific antigen-binding domain and a T cell receptor complex-binding domain can avoid side effects while increasing the anti-tumor activity.
