«Tumor necrosis factor is a cell signaling protein (cytokine) involved in systemic inflammation and is one of the cytokines that make up the acute phase reaction. It is produced chiefly by activated macrophages, although it can be produced by many other cell types such as CD4+ lymphocytes, NK cell, neutrophil, mast cell, eosinophils, and neurons.

Tumor Necrosis Factor Alpha is also known as TNFα, TNFa, cachexin, cachectin and it is a cytokine. Here is an overview of its with
