| Recombinant TRAIL - Recombinant Tumor Necrosis Factor-Related Apoptosis-Inducing Ligand Recommended Abbreviation: rTRAIL Alternative Names: Recombinant TRAIL, recombinant TNFSF10, Apo2L/TRAIL Type: Recombinant protein / biologic anticancer agent / death-receptor agonist Function: Recombinant TRAIL binds primarily to the death receptors DR4 (TNFRSF10A) and DR5 (TNFRSF10B), causing death-inducing signaling complex formation, caspase-8 activation, downstream caspase activation, and apoptosis. Many cancer cells are more sensitive to TRAIL-induced apoptosis than normal cells, although resistance is common. Cancer: ↑ TRAIL-induced death-receptor signaling is generally favorable because it promotes extrinsic apoptosis in susceptible cancer cells. Recombinant TRAIL and TRAIL-receptor agonists have shown substantial preclinical anticancer activity, although clinical efficacy has been limited by short circulating half-life, receptor biology, and intrinsic or acquired TRAIL resistance. |

| A protein reported to play an important role in sensitizing cancer cells to apoptosis.
Death Receptor 5 (DR5), also known as TRAIL receptor 2, is a member of the tumor necrosis factor (TNF) receptor superfamily. It plays a crucial role in the apoptosis (programmed cell death) pathway, particularly in the context of cancer. DR5 is often overexpressed in various types of tumors, including breast, colon, and lung cancers. This overexpression can make cancer cells more susceptible to TRAIL-induced apoptosis. |
