Currently, the TNF family ligands, B cell-activating factor (BAFF), a proliferation-inducing ligand (APRIL), and those receptors (BAFF receptor (BAFF-R), transmembrane activator and calcium modulator and cytophilin ligand interactor (TACI), B cell maturation antigen (BCMA), and proteoglycans) are found to play a prominent role in the pathogenesis of and are known as the potential therapeutic target for autoimmune diseases. Here, TNFRSF17 is linked to autoimmune disease.
