TNFR2/Oncology
Tumor necrosis factor receptor 2 (TNFR2) is expressed on the most potent population of TNFR2 regulatory T cells (Tregs) in the tumor microenvironment. The TNFR2 epitope is densely expressed on the immunosuppressive Tregs that protect tumors and play a role in resistance to checkpoint inhibitors, including PD1 and CTLA4. TNFR2 is also expressed on the surface of certain cancers as an NFkB-driven growth receptor oncogene.

CD40/Autoimmunity
CD40 is a TNFR superfamily member that mediates T-dependent B cell responses and efficient T cell priming. CD40 has been identified as playing a role in autoimmune diseases in which activated T and B cells cause pathology, including autoimmune thyroiditis, type 1 diabetes, inflammatory bowel disease, psoriasis, multiple sclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis, and systemic lupus erythematosus.
