Serum soluble Fas ligand is a severity and mortality prognostic marker for COVID-19 patients

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2022
Finding cytokine storm initiator factors associated with uncontrolled inflammatory immune response is necessary in COVID-19 patients. The aim was the identification of Fas/Fas Ligand (FasL) role in lung involvement and mortality of COVID-19 patients.

Molecular manipulation of keratin 8/18 intermediate filaments: modulators of FAS-mediated death signaling in human ovarian granulosa tumor cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Background: Granulosa cell tumors (GCT) are a rare ovarian neoplasm but prognosis is poor following recurrence. Keratin intermediate filaments expressed in these tumors are a diagnostic marker, yet paradoxically, may also constitute a target for ...

Receptor interacting protein-2 plays a critical role in human lung epithelial cells survival in response to Fas-induced cell-death. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Lung epithelial cell death is critical to the lung injury that occurs in the acute respiratory distress syndrome. It is known that FasL plays a prominent role in this lung cell death pathway and may work in part through activation of the receptor ...

Bid participates in genotoxic drug-induced apoptosis of HeLa cells and is essential for death receptor ligands' apoptotic and synergistic effects [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Background: The BH3-only protein Bid is an important component of death receptor-mediated caspase activation. Bid is cleaved by caspase-8 or -10 into t-Bid, which translocates to mitochondria and triggers the release of caspase-activating factors.

Deregulation of Fas ligand expression as a novel cause of autoimmune lymphoproliferative syndrome-like disease

open access: yesHaematologica, 2015
Autoimmune lymphoproliferative syndrome is frequently caused by mutations in genes involved in the Fas death receptor pathway, but for 20–30% of patients the genetic defect is unknown.

Focal adhesions are foci for tyrosine-based signal transduction via GIV/Girdin and G proteins. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
GIV/Girdin is a multimodular signal transducer and a bona fide metastasis-related protein. As a guanidine exchange factor (GEF), GIV modulates signals initiated by growth factors (chemical signals) by activating the G protein Gαi.

Listeria monocytogenes virulence proteins induce surface expression of Fas ligand on T lymphocytes [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Microbiology, 2004
SummaryVirulence factors secreted by Listeria monocytogenes are known to interfere with host cellular signalling pathways. We investigated whether L. monocytogenes modulates T‐cell receptor signalling by examining surface expression of proteins known to be upregulated on activated T cells. In vitro culture of murine splenocytes with L.

Dominant inhibition of Fas ligand-mediated apoptosis due to a heterozygous mutation associated with autoimmune lymphoproliferative syndrome (ALPS) Type Ib

open access: yesBMC Medical Genetics, 2007
Background: Autoimmune lymphoproliferative syndrome (ALPS) is a disorder of lymphocyte homeostasis and immunological tolerance due primarily to genetic defects in Fas (CD95/APO-1; TNFRSF6), a cell surface receptor that regulates apoptosis and its ...

Identification of the Calmodulin-Binding Domains of Fas Death Receptor. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
The extrinsic apoptotic pathway is initiated by binding of a Fas ligand to the ectodomain of the surface death receptor Fas protein. Subsequently, the intracellular death domain of Fas (FasDD) and that of the Fas-associated protein (FADD) interact to ...

Interaction of the Adenovirus 14.7-kDa Protein with FLICE Inhibits Fas Ligand-induced Apoptosis [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 1998
Adenovirus type 5 encodes a 14.7-kDa protein that protects infected cells from tumor necrosis factor-induced cytolysis by an unknown mechanism. In this report, we demonstrate that infection of cells with an adenovirus vector expressing Fas ligand induced rapid apoptosis that was blocked by coinfection with a virus expressing 14. 7K.
