TRAIL Receptors 1 (DR4) and 2 (DR5) Signal FADD-Dependent Apoptosis and Activate NF-κB

TLDR
It is shown that TRAil-R1 can associate with TRAIL-R2, suggesting that TRAIL may signal through heteroreceptor signaling complexes, and can signal both death and gene transcription, functions reminiscent of those of TNFR1 and TRAMP.

Activators and target genes of Rel/NF-kappaB transcription factors.

TL;DR: It is argued that NF-κB functions more generally as a central regulator of stress responses and pairing stress responsiveness and anti-apoptotic pathways through the use of a common transcription factor may result in increased cell survival following stress insults.
Journal ArticleDOI

Signalling pathways of the TNF superfamily: a double-edged sword.

TL;DR: Two different tumour-necrosis factors, first isolated in 1984, were found to be cytotoxic to tumour cells and to induce tumour regression in mice, and blockers of TNF have been approved for human use in treating TNF-linked autoimmune diseases.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mature T lymphocyte apoptosis--immune regulation in a dynamic and unpredictable antigenic environment.

TL;DR: Immunological, cellular, and molecular evidence indicates that throughout the life of a T cell, apoptosis may be evoked in excessive, harmful, or useless clonotypes to preserve a healthy and balanced immune system.

Molecular Cloning: A Laboratory Manual

TL;DR: Molecular Cloning has served as the foundation of technical expertise in labs worldwide for 30 years as mentioned in this paper and has been so popular, or so influential, that no other manual has been more widely used and influential.
Journal ArticleDOI

Apoptosis by death factor.

TL;DR: This work was supported in part by Grants-in-Aid from the Ministry of Education, Science, and Culture of Japan and by a Research Grant from the Princess Takamatsu Cancer Research Fund, and performed in part through Special Coordination Funds of the Science and Technology Agency of the Japanese Government.
Journal ArticleDOI

Identification and characterization of a new member of the TNF family that induces apoptosis

TL;DR: A novel tumor necrosis factor (TNF) family member has been cloned and characterized, and the TRAIL gene is located on chromosome 3 at position 3q26, which is not close to any other known TNF ligand family members.
Journal ArticleDOI

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

FADD, a novel death domain-containing protein, interacts with the death domain of fas and initiates apoptosis

TL;DR: Findings suggest that FADD may play an important role in the proximal signal transduction of Fas, a mutant of Fas possessing enhanced killing activity, but not the functionally inactive mutants Fas-LPR and Fas-FD8.
