BACKGROUND: Upon Fas stimulation, procaspase-8 is recruited to the death-inducing signalling complex where autoactivation of caspase-8 occurs. Active caspase-8 can directly activate downstream caspases (e.g. caspase-3, 6, and 7) for the execution of apoptosis (mitochondria-independent pathway), w...
