Apoptosis-related genes significantly up-regulated in KG1a cells in coculture with stroma

Gene symbolsGene descriptionLogP
LTBR Lymphotoxin beta receptor (TNFR SF, member 3). This receptor is expressed on the surface of most cell types, including cells of epithelial and myeloid lineages, but not on T and B lymphocytes. 66.80 < .001 
TNFRSF11B TNFR SF, member 11b (osteoprotegerin). This protein is an osteoblast-secreted decoy receptor that functions as a negative regulator of bone resorption. 43.25 < .001 
PYCARD PYD and CARD domain containing. The PYD and CARD domains are members of the 6-helix bundle, death-domain–fold superfamily that mediates assembly of large signaling complexes in the inflammatory and apoptotic signaling pathways via the activation of caspases. 7.79 < .001 
CD40 CD40 molecule, TNFR SF, member 5. This receptor has been found to be essential in mediating a broad variety of immune and inflammatory responses, including T cell–dependent immunoglobulin class switching, memory B-cell development, and germinal center formation. 6.57 .002 
P53 Tumor protein p53 gene encodes the tumor suppressor p53, which responds to diverse cellular stresses to regulate target genes that induce cell-cycle arrest, apoptosis, senescence, DNA repair, or changes in metabolism. 2.85 .027 
CD70 The protein encoded by this gene is a cytokine that belongs to the TNF ligand family. It induces proliferation of costimulated T cells, enhances the generation of cytolytic T cells, and contributes to T-cell activation. 2.42 .006 
TNFRSF10B TNFR SF, member 10b. The protein encoded by this gene contains an intracellular death domain. 2.31 .005
