Description | Lymphotoxin-alpha (LT-alpha), also known as TNF-beta, is a member of the TNF superfamily of proteins (1). NK cells, T cells, B cells, and lymphoid tissue-inducer cells express LT-alpha (1). LT-alpha can be secreted as a soluble homotrimer or form membrane bound heterotrimers with lymphotoxin-beta (LT alpha1beta2 or LT alpha2beta1) which can be cleaved from the cell surface by matrix metalloproteases (1, 2). Soluble LT-alpha binds to and signals through TNFR1/TNFR2, activating the canonical NF-kappaB pathway (1). In contrast, LT alpha1beta2 heterodimers bind to the LTbetaR receptor and activate the noncanonical NF-kappaB pathway (1). As a result, LT-alpha and TNF-alpha have overlapping functions. Soluble LT-alpha and LT alpha1beta2 play key |
