About This Section
| EntrezGene summary for LTA: The encoded protein, a member of the tumor necrosis factor family, is a cytokine produced by lymphocytes. The protein is highly inducible, secreted, and forms heterotrimers with lymphotoxin-beta which anchor lymphotoxin-alpha to the cell surface. This protein also mediates a large variety of inflammatory, immunostimulatory, and antiviral responses, is involved in the formation of secondary lymphoid organs during development and plays a role in apoptosis. Genetic variations in this gene are associated with susceptibility to leprosy type 4 and psoriatic arthritis. UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot: TNFB_HUMAN, P01374Function: Cytokine that in its homotrimeric form binds to TNFRSF1A/TNFR1, TNFRSF1B/TNFBR and TNFRSF14/HVEM. In its heterotrimeric form with LTB binds to TNFRSF3/LTBR. Lymphotoxin is produced by lymphocytes and cytotoxic for a wide range of tumor cells in vitro and in vivoGene Wiki entry for LTA (Lymphotoxin_alpha) |

Genetic variations in LTA are associated with susceptibility to leprosy type 4 (LPRS4) [MIM:610988]; also known as susceptibility to age-dependent leprosy. Leprosy is a chronic infectious disease of peripheral sensory nerves caused by Mycobacterium leprae Genetic variations in LTA are associated with susceptibility to psoriatic arthritis [MIM:607507]. Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory dermatosis that affects approximately 2% of the population. It is characterized by red, scaly skin lesions that are usually found on the scalp, elbows, and knees, and may be associated with severe arthritis. Psoriatic arthritis has been defined as an inflammatory arthritis usually without any rheumatoid factor in serum (seronegative arthritis) associated with psoriasis10/95 Novoseek disease relationships for LTA gene (see all 95
