Fas (CD95/Apo-1) ligand regulation in T cell homeostasis, cell-mediated cytotoxicity and immune pathology.
Members of the tumor necrosis factor (TNF) superfamily are crucially involved in the regulation of T cell activation, homeostasis and cytotoxicity. In particular, Fas ligand (FasL), expressed by activated T lymphocytes, induces cell-mediated cytotoxicity and may also be responsible for apoptotic suicide. Tight regulation of this death-inducing ligand is a prerequisite for proper immune defense ...
متن کاملAqueous Humor Levels of Soluble Fas and Fas-ligand in Patients with Primary Open Angle and Pseudoex-foliation Glaucoma
Background: Glaucoma is one of the most common causes of blindness and is usually associated with elevated intraocular pressure. In patients with primary open angle glau-coma the number of trabecular meshwork cells is decreased. Death of the trabecular meshwork cells may be a result of apoptosis. Objective: To investigate the aqueous humor levels of soluble Fas (sFas) and Fas-Ligand (sFasL) in ...
متن کاملHyperthermia enhances CD95-ligand gene expression in T lymphocytes.
Hyperthermia represents an interesting therapeutic strategy for the treatment of tumors. Moreover, it is able to regulate several aspects of the immune response. Fas (APO-1/CD95) and its ligand (FasL) are cell surface proteins whose interaction activates apoptosis of Fas-expressing targets. In T cells, the Fas-Fas-L system regulates activation-induced cell death, is implicated in diseases in wh...
متن کاملRegulation of activation-induced Fas (CD95/Apo-1) ligand expression in T cells by the cyclin B1/Cdk1 complex.
Fas (CD95/Apo-1) ligand-mediated apoptosis has been recognized as an important mechanism of cell-mediated cytotoxicity and maintenance of immune homeostasis. Chronically activated T cells undergo activation-induced cell death (AICD), which depends on simultaneous Fas and Fas ligand expression. Previous reports have suggested that AICD might be linked to cell cycle progression of T cells and the...

Background: Endometriosis is a common gynecological disorder, which its main feature is the growth of endometrial tissue outside the uterine cavity. In this disease, apoptosis is impaired in endometrial cells transmitted to the peritoneal cavity, and thus these cells remain in ectopic sites and grow there. FasL-expressing cells induce apoptosis when they bind to Fas-bearing immune cells. Solubl...
