1 Heme-induced cell death required TNFR1 and TLR4/MyD88-dependent TNF production. Heme myeloid differentiation primary response gene 88 Mus musculus
2 Addition of TNF to Tlr4(-/-) or to Myd88(-/-) macrophages restored heme-induced cell death. Heme myeloid differentiation primary response gene 88 Mus musculus
3 Taken together, these results revealed that heme induces macrophage necrosis through 2 synergistic mechanisms: TLR4/Myd88-dependent expression of TNF and TLR4-independent generation of ROS. Heme myeloid differentiation primary response gene 88 Mus musculus
