Regulation of CD95 (APO-1) expression and the induction of apoptosis in human T cells: changes in old age.

abstract：BACKGROUND:ADAM (a disintegrin and metalloprotease) family members, characterized by a metalloprotease and a disintegrin domain, are membrane-anchored glycoproteins involved in proteolysis and cell adhesion. ADAM8 might have an important role in allergic inflammation. It can cleave a variety of substrates and is a shed...
