Pin1-FADD interactions regulate Fas-mediated apoptosis in activated eosinophils.
Abnormally long-lived eosinophils (Eos) are the major inflammatory component of allergic responses in the lungs of active asthmatics. Eos recruited to the airways after allergen exposure produce and respond to IL-5 and GM-CSF, enhancing their survival. Prosurvival signaling activates Pin1, a peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerase that binds to Bax and prevents its activation. How long-lived Eos, d...
متن کاملA Fas-associated protein factor, FAF1, potentiates Fas-mediated apoptosis.
Fas, a member of the tumor necrosis factor receptor family, can induce apoptosis when activated by Fas ligand binding or anti-Fas antibody crosslinking. Genetic studies have shown that a defect in Fas-mediated apoptosis resulted in abnormal development and function of the immune system in mice. A point mutation in the cytoplasmic domain of Fas (a single base change from T to A at base 786), rep...
متن کاملCD47 augments Fas/CD95-mediated apoptosis.
Fas (CD95) mediates apoptosis of many cell types, but the susceptibility of cells to killing by Fas ligand and anti-Fas antibodies is highly variable. Jurkat T cells lacking CD47 (integrin-associated protein) are relatively resistant to Fas-mediated death but are efficiently killed by Fas ligand or anti-Fas IgM (CH11) upon expression of CD47. Lack of CD47 impairs events downstream of Fas activa...
متن کاملFas-mediated apoptosis in cultured human eosinophils.
Previous studies have shown that cytokine-dependent eosinophils undergo apoptosis, yet the mechanisms governing this phenomenon remain obscure. Fas antigen is a transmembrane glycoprotein belonging to the tumor necrosis factor receptor family. Cross-linking of Fas antigen in numerous cell types leads to apoptosis. In the present study, we examined the potential role of Fas antigen in the apopto...
متن کاملCutting edge: two distinct motifs within the Fas ligand tail regulate Fas ligand-mediated costimulation.
The cytoplasmic domain of Fas ligand is sufficient to costimulate CD8(+) T cells by driving Fas ligand recruitment into lipid rafts and association with select Src homology 3-containing proteins, activating PI3K and MAPK pathways, mediating nuclear translocation of the transcription factors NFAT and AP-1, and enhancing IFN-gamma production and Ag-specific CD8(+) T cell proliferation. We now sho...
