Primary cutaneous B-cell lymphomas (CBCLs) represent a rare, but distinct group of B-cell neoplasms with a different clinical behaviour to B-cell lymphomas secondarily involving the skin. Fas-Fas ligand (Fasl) expression was investigated in a group of primary and secondary CBCLs to gain an insight i
Objective. To examine the expression of FasIFas ligand and the role of this ligand/receptor interaction in the regulation of apoptosis in normal human articular chondrocytes and in osteoarthritis (OA) cartilage. Methods. Normal and OA human knee cartilage and cells isolated from these tissues were
CD95/APO-1 ligand (FasL) is implicated in the maintenance of immune privileged sites by inducing apoptosis of activated infiltrating T lymphocytes. Therefore, progressive tumors might express high levels of FasL and develop as immune privileged sites. In this study, we investigated the expression of
