Therapeutic Non-Toxic Doses of TNF Induce Significant Regression in TNFR2-p75 Knockdown Lewis Lung Carcinoma Tumor Implants. PLoS One, 9(3) e92373. Abstract- Tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF) binds to two receptors: TNFR1/p55-cytotoxic and more... Tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF) binds to two receptors: TNFR1/p55-cytotoxic and TNFR2/p75-pro-survival. We have shown that tumor growth in p75 knockout (KO) mice was decreased more than 2-fold in Lewis lung carcinoma (LLCs). We hypothesized that selective blocking of TNFR2/p75 LLCs may sensitize them to TNF-induced apoptosis and affect the tumor growth. We implanted intact and p75 knockdown (KD)-LLCs (>90%, using shRNA) into wild type (WT) mice flanks. On day 8 post-inoculation, recombinant murine (rm) TNF-α (12.5 ng/gr of body weight) or saline was injected twice daily for 6 days. Tumor volumes (tV) were measured daily and tumor weights (tW) on day 15, when study was terminated due to large tumors in LLC+TNF group. Tubular bones, spleens and peripheral blood (PB) were examined to determine possible TNF toxicity. There was no significant difference in tV or tW between LLC minus (-) TNF and p75KD/LLC-TNF tumors. Compared to 3 control groups, p75KD/LLC+TNF showed >2-5-fold decreases in tV (p<0.001) and tW (p<0.0001). There was no difference in tV or tW end of study vs. before injections in p75KD/LLC+TNF group. In 3 other groups tV and tW were increased 2.7-4.5-fold (p<0.01, p<0.0002 and p<0.0001). Pathological examination revealed that 1/3 of p75KD/LLC+rmTNF tumors were 100% necrotic, the remaining revealed 40-60% necrosis. No toxicity was detected in bone marrow, spleen and peripheral blood. We concluded that blocking TNFR2/p75 in LLCs combined with intra-tumoral rmTNF injections inhibit LLC tumor growth. This could represent a novel and effective therapy against lung neoplasms and a new paradigm in cancer therapeutics. less...

Objective: To investigate the role of TNF-like weak inducer of apoptosis (TWEAK) in pathological adipose tissue (AT) remodeling and complications of obesity. Design and Methods Wild type (WT) and TWEAK knockout (KO) mice were fed normal diet (ND) or a high fat diet (HFD) for up to 17 weeks. Adipocyte death was induced using an established transgenic mouse model of inducible adipocyte apoptosis (FAT-ATTAC). Metabolic, biochemical, histologic and flow cytometric analyses were performed. Results: TWEAK and its receptor, fibroblast growth factor-inducible molecule 14 (Fn14) were upregulated in gonadal (g)AT of WT mice after HFD week 4 and 24 h after induction of adipocyte apoptosis. Phenotypes of KO and WT mouse were indistinguishable through HFD week 8. However, at week 17 obese KO mice had ˜30% larger gAT adipocytes and gAT mass than WT mice, coincident with reduced adipocyte death, enhanced insulin signaling, Th2/M2 immune skewing, fewer thick collagen fibers, and altered expression of extracellular matrix constituents and modulators that is consistent with reduced fibrosis and larger adipocytes. KO mice were less steatotic and became more insulin sensitive and glucose tolerant than WT mice after HFD week 12. Conclusion: TWEAK constrains 'healthy' gAT expansion and promotes metabolic complications in severe obesity. less...
