CD95 Monoclonal / Biotin / DX2
Product Details
Description | CD95, also known as FAS or Apo-1, is a member of the tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily (TNFR) and is found on the surface of many normal and neoplastically transformed cells. Its ligand, CD95L (FASL/Apo-1L), is able to induce apoptosis in CD95-expressing cells upon binding. CD95 and CD95L are up-regulated on lymphocytes upon activation and are known to play a key role in the regulation of an inflammatory response: Juxtocrine “fratricide” of neighbouring lymphocytes via mutual CD95 and CD95L expression helps to terminate immune responses, while apoptosis of pro-inflammatory cells via CD95 helps maintain immune privilege in sites such as the eye, where CD95L is found to be expressed in the retina and cornea. Cross-linking of CD95 receptors by DX2 monoclonal antibody has been described to induce apoptosis in certain target cells. | |

About CD95
The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the TNF-receptor superfamily. This receptor contains a death domain. It has been shown to play a central role in the physiological regulation of programmed cell death, and has been implicated in the pathogenesis of various malignancies and diseases of the immune system. The interaction of this receptor with its ligand allows the formation of a death-inducing signaling complex that includes Fas-associated death domain protein (FADD), caspase 8, and caspase 10. The autoproteolytic processing of the caspases in the complex triggers a downstream caspase cascade, and leads to apoptosis. This receptor has been also shown to activate NF-kappaB, MAPK3/ERK1, and MAPK8/JNK, and is found to be involved in transducing the proliferating signals in normal diploid fibroblast and T cells. Several alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described, some of which are candidates for nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD). The isoforms lacking the transmembrane domain may negatively regulate the apoptosis mediated by the full length isoform. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2011]
