text: Targeting of TNRF2 in tumor cells is associated with increased tumor cell death and decreased progression of tumor cell growth.
  Increased expression of TNFR2 is found in breast cancer, cervical cancer, colon cancer, and renal cancer. A link between the expression of TNRF2 in tumor cells and late-stage cancer has been discovered. TNFR2 plays a significant role in tumor cell growth as it has been found that the loss of TNFR2 expression is linked with increased death of associated tumor cells and a significant standstill of further growth. There is therapeutic potential in the targeting of TNFR2 for cancer treatments through TNFR2 inhibition.
