摘要: Activation-induced cell death (AICD) is the process by which cells undergo apoptosis in a controlled manner through interaction of factor and its receptor. Programmed can be induced number physiological pathological factors including Fas (CD95)-Fas ligand (FasL/CD95L) interaction, tumour necrosis (TNF), ceramide, reactive oxygen species (ROS). 48-kDa type I transmembrane protein that belongs to TNF/nerve growth receptor superfamily. FasL 40-kDa II TNF The with results series signal transductions initiate apoptosis. induction this termed AICD. Fas-FasL interactions have been shown play significant roles immune system homeostasis. In review involvement death, particular reference T cell, mechanism(s) they induce described. role AICD homeostasis controversy surrounding privilege, inflammation, so-called counterattack also discussed.
