A subclass of dendritic cells kills CD4 T cells via Fas/Fas-ligand-induced apoptosis.
Dendritic cells (DC), the most efficient antigen-presenting cells, are well equipped for activation of naive CD4+ T cells by their expression of high levels of major histocompat...
The c-Jun N-Terminal Kinase Cascade Plays a Role in Stress-Induced Apoptosis in Jurkat Cells by Up-Regulating Fas Ligand Expression
Abstract T lymphocytes undergo apoptosis in response to cellular stress, including UV exposure and gamma irradiation. However, the mechanism by which stress stimuli induce apopt...
Apoptosis induced by DNA damage O6-methylguanine is Bcl-2 and caspase-9/3 regulated and Fas/caspase-8 independent.
In the therapy of various kinds of tumors, methylating agents generating O6-methylguanine (O6MeG) in DNA are used. We studied the molecular mechanism of cell death induced by th...
Inhibition of death receptor signals by cellular FLIP
The widely expressed protein Fas is a member of the tumour necrosis factor receptor family which can trigger apoptosis. However, Fas surface expression does not necessarily rend...
Two NFAT Transcription Factor Binding Sites Participate in the Regulation of CD95 (Fas) Ligand Expression in Activated Human T Cells
Antigen receptor engagement on T lymphocytes activates transcription factors important for stimulating cytokine gene expression. This is critical for clonal expansion of antigen...
