Background: Members in the TNF superfamily regulate immune responses and induce apoptosis. Two novel members in the TNF family were recently identified and designated BAFF/BLyS/TALL-1/THANK/zTNF4 (1-4) and April/TALL-2, respectively, (3,5). BAFF was characterized as a B cell activator since it induced B cell proliferation and immunoglobulin secretion (1,2). April regulates immunological and non-immunological cell growth. Three receptors, BCMA (for B cell maturation protein), TACI, and BAFF-R, for BAFF were recently identified (6,7). BCMA, like TACI, binds BAFF and April. BAFF and its receptors induce B cell development and survival, activate NF-kB and c-jun N-terminal kinase, and are involved in B cell associated autoimmune diseases.Synonyms: B-cell maturation protein, BCM, TNFRSF17, Tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily member 17
