Tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) has a broad spectrum of biological activities. In addition to its central role in inflammation TNF-α is involved in regulating apoptotic cell death, cellular proliferation, and differentiation.

MACS GMP Recombinant Human TNF-α is designed for ex vivo cell culture processing. No animal- or human-derived materials were used for the manufacture of this product, unless otherwise stated in the respective Certificate of Origin. The product is lyophilized without carrier protein or preservatives.

Alternative names

TNFSF2

Biological activity

Background information

TNF-α is mainly produced by activated monocytes and macrophages, but also by a broad variety of other cell types including lymphoid cells, mast cells, endothelial cells, fibroblasts, and astrocytes. Beside its primary role in immune regulation, TNF-α promotes angiogenesis, bone resorption, and thrombotic processes.

Applications

MACS GMP Recombinant Human TNF-α can be used for a variety of applications, including the ex vivo generation of human dendritic cells from enriched CD14⁺ monocyte populations.^2–4
