Using tumor necrosis factor receptor type 2 (TNFR2)-deficient mice and generating bone marrow chimeras which express TNFR2 on either hematopoietic or nonhematopoietic cells, we demonstrated the requirement for TNFR2 expression on tissue cells to induce lethal cerebral malaria. Thus, TNFR2 on the brain vasculature mediates tumor necrosis factor-induced neurovascular lesions in experimental cerebral malaria.
利用2型肿瘤坏死因子受体(TNFR2)缺陷小鼠并构建在造血细胞或非造血细胞上表达TNFR2的骨髓嵌合体,我们证明了组织细胞上TNFR2的表达对于诱导致死性脑型疟疾是必需的。因此,脑微血管系统上的TNFR2在实验性脑型疟疾中介导肿瘤坏死因子诱导的神经血管病变。
