PG - 18-26 LID - 10.1016/j.cdtm.2015.02.002 [doi] AB - Tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) contributes to myocardial infarction (MI) injury. Polymorphism of TNF-alpha gene promoter region and secretion and release of TNF-alpha and its transformation by a series of signaling pathways are all changed at different points of pathophysiological process in MI. Researches also investigated TNF-alpha antagonists and their potential therapeutic role in the setting of MI and heart failure at both molecular and clinical level. This article briefly reviews TNF-alpha and its mechanism as a mediator in MI.
