Enhanced caspase-8 recruitment to and activation at the DISC is critical for sensitisation of human hepatocellular carcinoma cells to TRAIL-induced apoptosis by chemotherapeutic drugs

TL;DR: A potential mechanism for TRAIL sensitisation by 5-FU is the increased effectiveness of caspase-8 recruitment to and activation at the DISC facilitated by the downregulation of cFLIP and the consequent shift in the ratio of casing-8 to c FLIP at theDISC.
Journal ArticleDOI

Proteasome inhibition sensitizes hepatocellular carcinoma cells, but not human hepatocytes, to TRAIL

TL;DR: Results show that otherwise chemotherapy‐resistant tumor cells can be sensitized for TRAIL‐induced apoptosis at the DISC level in the presence of high levels of cFLIP, which suggests the existence of an additional factor that modulates the interaction of FADD and the TRAIL death receptors.
