The Human Papillomavirus Type 16 E5 Protein Impairs TRAIL- and FasL-Mediated Apoptosis in HaCaT Cells by Different Mechanisms
1 Nov 2002
Abstract excerpt
The effect of the human papillomavirus type 16 (HPV-16) E5 protein on apoptosis was investigated by using the polyclonal HaCaT-cell lines stably transfected either with E5 (HaCaT/E5) or the empty vector (HaCaT/pMSG) as reference. Apoptosis was triggered either by Fas ligand (FasL) or by tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) and was monitored by detection of cleavage of procaspase-8 and...
