TNF increases the amount of CD4. 6 / 7
| 6

reach
"TNF and IFN-gamma, alone or in combination, did not cause any significant change of CD4 mRNA expression in HL-60 cells, thus indicating that decrease of surface CD4, which accompanies differentiation with these cytokines, is likely due to alterations of the CD4 protein synthesis and/or transport to the plasma membrane."

reach
"We also found that TNF-a could induce and maintain CD4 expression in L4E cells, although this is not the factor produced by SO stroma (32)."

reach
"Treatment of cultures with recombinant cytokines given at concentrations in the range of those induced by HIV-1 indicated that IL-6 and TNF alpha caused an increase of : i) CD4 expression, ii) HIV absorption to uninfected cells, and iii) release of infectious virions by infected cells."

reach
"This down-regulation of CD4 expression by LPS, TNF-alpha, and IL-1 beta occurs at the level of transcription."

reach
"We examined the hypothesis that one of the pro inflammatory cytokines, tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha), could induce expression of the adhesion molecule CD4 on human eosinophils."

reach
"Conversely, neither LPS nor TNF-alpha and IL-1 beta were able to modulate surface CD4 expression on quiescent or phytohaemagglutinin (PHA)-activated lymphocytes."
