Recent evidence shows that many molecules of the TNF family serve as counter-receptors, inducing costimulation through reverse signals in addition to delivering signals through their respective TNF receptors. In this review, we will discuss this new class of costimulators with a focus on the mechanism of costimulation transduced by reverse signaling through Fas ligand.
最近的证据表明,许多肿瘤坏死因子(TNF)家族分子可作为反受体,除了通过各自的TNF受体传递信号外,还通过反向信号诱导共刺激。在本综述中,我们将讨论这类新的共刺激分子,重点关注通过Fas配体反向信号传导介导的共刺激机制。
