Transmembrane TNF-α (tmTNF-α) and secretory TNF-α (sTNF-α) display opposite effects in septic shock. Reducing tmTNF-α shedding can offset the detrimental effects of sTNF-α and increase the beneficial effect of tmTNF-α. We previously developed a monoclonal antibody that is specific for tmTNF-α and do...
