TL1A, a type II membrane protein and a member of the TNF superfamily, is also known as vascular endothelial growth inhibitor (VEGI)-251. Although TL1A was identified as a longer variant of TL1/VEGI, it has been presumed that the original TL1/VEGI was a cloning artifact.

Description

TL1A, a type II membrane protein and a member of the TNF superfamily, is also known as vascular endothelial growth inhibitor (VEGI)-251. Although TL1A was identified as a longer variant of TL1/VEGI, it has been presumed that the original TL1/VEGI was a cloning artifact. TL1A is initially expressed as a membrane-bound protein and is subsequently released as a soluble protein via ectodomain shedding by a metalloproteinase such as TNF-α converting enzyme (TACE).

TL1A is constitutively expressed by endothelial cells, such as the human umbilical vein endothelial cells, synovial fibroblast-like cells, the vascular endothelial cells in the kidney and prostate and can be up-regulated by stimulation with TNF-α, IL-1, and PMA. In addition, TL1A can be transiently induced in macrophage and dendritic cells upon activation by Toll-like receptor (TLR) ligands, enteric bacteria, and Fcγ receptor (FcγR) crosslinking. TL1A binds to two receptors, DR3 and DcR3.

TL1A-DR3 interaction forms a part of the inflammatory cytokine network and contribute to rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and intestinal bowl disease (IBS). The DcR3 functions as a decoy receptor for TL1A as well as FasL and LIGHT.
