Overview of Gene Research
Tnfrsf4, also known as OX40 (CD134), is a member of the tumour necrosis factor receptor family and functions as a T cell co-stimulatory molecule [1]. It is activated by its cognate ligand OX40L (CD134L, CD252). The OX40-OX40L interactions are involved in promoting T cell survival, effector T cell phenotype, T cell memory, reducing regulatory function, increasing effector cytokine production and enhancing cell mobility. This pathway is significant in immune-related biological processes and has potential implications in autoimmunity [1].
In various diseases, Tnfrsf4 shows distinct impacts. In chronic myeloid leukemia, Tregs expressing Tnfrsf4 protect leukemia stem cells from CD8+ CTL-mediated elimination, and targeting TNFRSF4 signaling can reduce Tregs' protective function towards leukemia stem cells [2]. In hepatocellular carcinoma, elevated TNFRSF4 expression affects immune cell infiltration, gene mutation, and is an independent prognostic marker [3]. In non-M3 acute myeloid leukemia, elevated TNFRSF4 expression is associated with poor prognosis, as well as mutations in genes like TP53, FLT3, and NPM1 [4]. In endometrial carcinoma, TNFRSF4 is positively correlated with tumor-infiltrating immune cells (such as CD4+ T cells, CD8+ T cells, and Tregs) and is related to patient prognosis, thus serving as a potential biomarker for prognosis prediction and immunomodulation [5].
In conclusion, Tnfrsf4, as a key T cell co-stimulatory molecule, plays an important role in immune-related biological processes. Studies, especially those on its expression in different cancer types, have revealed its significance in disease prognosis, immune cell infiltration, and immune-mediated tumor protection. Understanding Tnfrsf4 function through in vivo studies may provide new insights into disease mechanisms and potential therapeutic targets.
