Biological Functions and Clinical Implications of CFLAR: From Cell Death Mechanisms to Therapeutic Targeting in Immune Regulation
1 Apr 2025
Abstract excerpt
Since its initial functional characterization in the late 1990s, CASP-8 and FADD-like apoptosis regulator (CFLAR) has been recognized as a crucial regulator of both apoptosis and immune responses. CFLAR inhibits caspase-8 activation by forming heterodimers with procaspase-8 at the death-inducing signaling complex (DISC), thereby preventing its proteolytic maturation. In addition to its role in cell death, CFLAR...
