Inhibition of death receptor signals by cellular FLIP

TL;DR: The characterization of an inhibitor of apoptosis is reported, designated FLIP (for FLICE-inhibitory protein), which is predominantly expressed in muscle and lymphoid tissues and may be implicated in tissue homeostasis as an important regulator of apoptotic regulation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fas triggers an alternative, caspase-8-independent cell death pathway using the kinase RIP as effector molecule.

TL;DR: F Fas kills activated primary T cells efficiently in the absence of active caspases, which results in necrotic morphological changes and late mitochondrial damage but no cytochrome c release.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mice transgenic for BAFF develop lymphocytic disorders along with autoimmune manifestations.

TL;DR: Mice transgenic for BAFF have vastly increased numbers of mature B and effector T cells, and develop autoimmune-like manifestations such as the presence of high levels of rheumatoid factors, circulating immune complexes, anti–DNA autoantibodies, and immunoglobulin deposition in the kidneys.
Journal ArticleDOI

BAFF, a novel ligand of the tumor necrosis factor family, stimulates B cell growth.

TL;DR: A novel member of the T NF family, designated BAFF (for B cell activating factor belonging to the TNF family), which is expressed by T cells and dendritic cells is described, suggesting that BAFF plays an important role as costimulator of B cell proliferation and function.
Journal ArticleDOI

Viral FLICE-inhibitory proteins (FLIPs) prevent apoptosis induced by death receptors

TL;DR: A new family of viral inhibitors (v-FLIPs) which interfere with apoptosis signalled through death receptors3 and which are present in several γ-herpesviruses (including Kaposi's-sarcoma-associated human herpesvirus-8), as well as in the tumorigenic human molluscipoxvirus4.
