摘要
In this report, we demonstrate that both TNFR1 and the TNFR2 are expressed on the salivary gland cell line A-253 cell membrane. Furthermore, cell treatment with anti- Ro and anti- La autoantibodies from Sjogren IgG determined TNF-a production, clarifying which could be the inducer of the extrinsic pathway of apoptosis in salivary gland cells.
