The superfamily of tumor necrosis factors (TNF) and the TNF-receptor (TNFR) contain many molecules with vital functions in an array of signaling pathways. One of the most important functions include their role in the development and regulation of the immune system. A member of this family, TNF-like cytokine 1A (TL1A), which is encoded by the TNFSF15 gene, is a transmembrane protein that can be found in both membrane-bound or soluble forms. While both of these forms are structurally similar, they have unique effects on immunological function.
TL1A signals by binding to its receptor, death domain receptor 3 (DR3 or TNFFRSFf25). DR3 shares the most significant homology to TNFR1 among all the TNFR proteins in the superfamily. Downstream signaling following TL1A and DR3 binding include mucosal immunity, intestinal homeostasis, and development and maintenance of inflammatory responses, which can greatly affect patients with diseases such as inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).
