Journal ArticleDOI

Role of STAT5 in controlling cell survival and immunoglobulin gene recombination during pro-B cell development

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the development of pro-B cells was restored by transgenic expression of the prosurvival protein Bcl-2, which compensated for loss of the antiapoptotic protein Mcl-1.
Journal ArticleDOI

B Lymphocytes Differentially Use the Rel and Nuclear Factor κB1 (NF-κB1) Transcription Factors to Regulate Cell Cycle Progression and Apoptosis in Quiescent and Mitogen-activated Cells

TL;DR: Collectively, these results are the first to demonstrate that in normal B cells, NF-κB1 regulates survival of cells in G0, whereas mitogenic activation induced by distinct stimuli requires different Rel/NF-κBs factors to control cell cycle progression and prevent apoptosis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Apoptosis regulators Fas and Bim cooperate in shutdown of chronic immune responses and prevention of autoimmunity.

TL;DR: These results identify critical overlapping roles for Fas and Bim in T cell death in immune response shutdown and prevention of immunopathology and thereby resolve a long-standing controversy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Shutdown of an acute T cell immune response to viral infection is mediated by the proapoptotic Bcl-2 homology 3-only protein Bim

TL;DR: Bim is dispensable for viral clearance but is necessary for the death of activated T cells when immune responses are terminated, which has implications for the therapeutic manipulation of immune responses to infections and immunization.
Journal ArticleDOI

The role of the Bcl-2 protein family in cancer.

TL;DR: Current knowledge of the molecular control of cell death is described and the role of pro- and anti-apoptotic members of the Bcl-2 protein family in tumourigenesis andAnti-cancer therapy is discussed.
