Abstract:

Tumor necrosisfactor (TNF) -like weak inducer of apoptosis (TWEAK) is a member of TNF superfamily, which plays an important role in the regulation of cell proliferation, differentiation and migration via its sole receptor, fibroblast growth factor inducible 14 (Fn14) . Recent studies have indicated that TWEAK/Fn14 signals act on a wide variety of stem cells such as hepatic stem cells, neural stem cells and mesenchymal stem cells, which intervene tissue repair and regeneration by affecting the proliferation and differentiation of stem cells. Here we review recent advances in studies, which would conduce to revealing the role of TWEAK/Fn14 signals in regulating stem cells' proliferation and differentiation as well as the mechanisms, and proposing new directions for stem cells in basic researches such as the pathogenesis of some diseases, and clinical researches such as cell therapies and tissue engineering.

Key words: TWEAK, Fn14, Signal pathway, Stem cell, Proliferation, Differentiation
