Abstract excerpt
Ceramide is a key mediator of apoptosis, yet its role in Fas-mediated apoptosis is controversial. Some reports have indicated that ceramide is either a primary signaling molecule in Fas-induced cell death, or that it functions upstream of Fas by increasing FasL expression. Other studies have suggested that ceramide is not relevant to Fas-induced cell death. We have approached this problem by studying...
