Abstract excerpt
p66Shc, an adaptor molecule which enhances reactive oxygen species (ROS) production by mitochondria, promotes T-cell apoptosis by inducing mitochondrial dysfunction and impairing Ca(2+) homeostasis. We have addressed the potential role of Lck, a kinase which has been implicated in T-cell apoptosis induced by a number of stimuli, in the proapoptotic activity of p66Shc. Lck deficiency in Jurkat T cells...
