Members in the TNF superfamily regulate immune responses and induce apoptosis.
A novel member in the TNF family was recently identified by several groups and designated APRIL (for a proliferation-inducing ligand), TALL-2 (for TNF-and ApoL-related Leukocyte-expressed Ligand 2), and TRDL-1a (for TNF related death ligand 1a) in human and mouse (1-4).
Two receptors for APRIL were recently identified and designated TACI and BCMA (5-7).
APRIL stimulates B and T cell proliferation, triggers humoral immune responses, activates NF-kB, and induces cell death (1-7).
APRIL and its close relative of BlyS and their receptors BCMA and TACI are involved in diseases of autoimmunity and cancer (8,9).
