✦ Synopsis


APO-I is a 48-kDa cell-membrane protein identical to the Far antigen now designated CD95. It is a member of the NGF/TNF receptor superfamily. Anti-APO-I monoclonal antibody induces apoptosis in a variety of cell types expressing this antigen. We immunohistochemically investigated APO-I expression in normal colon mucosa, 20 adenomas, 258 colon carcinomas and I0 liver metastases and carried out in vitro studies using a panel of colon-carcinoma cell lines. lmmunohistochemically, APO-I was regularly expressed at the basolateral membrane of normal colon epithelia. In a minor fraction of colon adenomas and in 4To whom correspondence and reprint requests should be sent, at

DNA hypermethylation of CpG-rich promoter sequences is associated with tumor suppressor gene inactivation in many human cancers, notably in carcinoma of the prostate and the urinary bladder. Recently, the mouse homologue of the tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily 6 (TNFRSF6) gene was reported
