The molecular mechanisms of apoptosis caused by IFN-gamma (interferon gamma)/LIGHT (lymphotoxin-related inducible ligand that competes for glycoprotein D binding to herpes virus entry mediator on T cells) have not been studied in detail.
In response to stimulation with herpes virus antigens, the proinflammatory cytokines interleukin (IL)-1beta, IL-6, tumour necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha and interferon inducible protein (IP)-10 were produced.
The expression of LIGHT and its receptors, herpes virus entry mediator (HVEM) and lymphotoxin β receptor (LTβR), was investigated in both dietary regimens.
The cytokine LIGHT activates various anti-tumor functions through its two receptors, lymphotoxin beta receptor (LTbetaR) and herpes virus entry mediator (HVEM), and is expected to be a promising candidate for cancer therapy.
In particular, we discuss the findings about LIGHT (homologous to lymphotoxins, inducible expression, competes with herpes simplex virus glycoprotein D for herpes viral entry mediator, a receptor expressed on T lymphocytes) in the pathogenesis of IBD, and the potential mechanisms by which LIGHT induces IBD.
Herpes virus entry mediator (HVEM) plays a critical role in the regulation of inflammation through interaction with its natural ligands LIGHT and lymphotoxin alpha and also serves as one of the entry receptors of herpes simplex virus (HSV).
The TNF member LIGHT also known as TL4 or TNFSF14) can play a major role in cancer control via its two receptors; it induces tumor cell death through lymphotoxin-beta receptor (LT-betaR) and ligation to the herpes virus entry mediator (HVEM) amplifies the immune response.
LIGHT (homologous to lymphotoxins, exhibiting inducible expression, and competing with herpes simplex virus (HSV) glycoprotein D for herpes virus entry mediator (HVEM), a receptor expressed by T lymphocytes) has been involved in various autoimmune and inflammatory disorders.
The cytokine LIGHT activates various anti-tumor functions through its two receptors, lymphotoxin beta receptor (LTbetaR) and herpes virus entry mediator (HVEM), and is expected to be a promising candidate for cancer therapy.
Furthermore, increased expression of LIGHT (homologous to lymphotoxin, exhibits inducible expression, competes with herpesvirus glycoprotein D for herpes virus entry mediator on T cells) on T cells, a member of the TNF family (TNFSF14) and a ligand for LTbetaR, could dramatically increase the number of T cells and DCs, which leads to severe autoimmune diseases in a LTbetaR-dependent fashion.
The tumor necrosis factor (TNF) superfamily member LIGHT, which binds herpes virus entry mediator (HVEM) and lymphotoxin beta receptor (LTbetaR), plays important roles in regulating the immune response.
TNFSF14 is known to bind to its receptors herpes virus entry mediator (HVEM) and lymphotoxin β receptor (LTβR) for signal transduction, but TNFSF14-induced hypopigmentation was independent of HVEM and LTβR in melanocytes.
The TNF member LIGHT also known as TL4 or TNFSF14) can play a major role in cancer control via its two receptors; it induces tumor cell death through lymphotoxin-beta receptor (LT-betaR) and ligation to the herpes virus entry mediator (HVEM) amplifies the immune response.
We observed spontaneous osteoclastogenesis with a significant increase in OC formation and bone resorbing activity in late-stage CKD and HD patients when compared with early-stage CKD patients and healthy donors, likely due to an increased expression of RANKL and LIGHT (homologous to Lymphotoxins exhibiting Inducible expression and competing with herpes simplex virus Glycoprotein D for herpes virus entry mediator [HVEM], a receptor expressed by T lymphocytes) in PBMCs.
LIGHT is a tumor necrosis factor (TNF) superfamily ligand that regulates T cell immune responses by signaling through the herpes virus entry mediator (HVEM) and the lymphotoxin beta receptor (LTbetaR).
LIGHT-mediated intestinal disease is dependent on both of its identified signaling receptors, lymphotoxin beta receptor and herpes virus entry mediator, because LIGHT Tg mesenteric lymph node cells do not cause intestinal inflammation when transferred into the lymphotoxin beta receptor-deficient mice, and herpes virus entry mediator on donor T cells is required for the full development of disease.
LIGHT (homologous to lymphotoxins, exhibiting inducible expression, and competing with herpes simplex virus (HSV) glycoprotein D for herpes virus entry mediator (HVEM), a receptor expressed by T lymphocytes) has been involved in various autoimmune and inflammatory disorders.

Herpes virus entry mediator (HVEM) is a member of the tumor necrosis factor (TNF) receptor superfamily (TNFRSF14), which serves as a receptor for herpes viruses and cytokines such as lymphotoxin-alpha (LT-alpha) and LIGHT (lymphotoxin-like inducible protein that competes with glycoprotein D for herpes virus entry on T cells).
A strategy for systemic delivery of the oncolytic herpes virus HSV1716: redirected tropism by antibody-binding sites incorporated on the virion surface as a glycoprotein D fusion protein.
LIGHT is a tumor necrosis factor (TNF) superfamily ligand that regulates T cell immune responses by signaling through the herpes virus entry mediator (HVEM) and the lymphotoxin beta receptor (LTbetaR).
