GlossaryTumor Necrosis Factor

protein involved in inflammation and immune system regulation

Tumor Necrosis Factor (TNF), also known as TNF-alpha, is a protein produced by the immune system that plays a crucial role in inflammation and the body's response to infection. It helps regulate immune cells, but excessive TNF can lead to chronic inflammatory diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis and psoriasis.
