TNFSF15 is constitutively expressed by endothelial cells, especially vascular endothelial cells in the kidney and prostate, but can also be induced by IL-1β or TNFα. For other tissues, particularly immune cells, the expression of TNFSF15 is transient. TNFSF15 provides a stimulatory signal to T cell subsets, enhancing effector activity and proliferation. TNFSF15 interaction with receptor DR3 in macrophages induces bacterial uptake and promotes intracellular bacterial clearance via reactive oxygen species, nitric oxide synthase 2, and autophagy up-regulation. For these cells, constitutive expression of TNFSF15 results in increased severity of immunopathology.
TNFSF15 is the only ligand for TNFRSF25. Interaction of TNFSF15 with TNFRSF25 in several cell lines is associated with NFκB activation and induction of apoptosis.
A single nucleotide polymorphism in TNFSF15 is associated with Crohn’s disease. At the same time, several polymorphisms in TNFSF15 are associated with the incidence of inflammatory bowel disease. polymorphisms in TNFSF15 may also be important for developing spondyloarthropathy, primary biliary cirrhosis and leprosy.
