“…The generation of mitochondrial ROS in the form of superoxide, the species produced by complex I dysfunction, 41 was previously shown to be necessary for killer lymphocyte-mediated death since superoxide scavengers virtually completely inhibit death. 17,42 Here we further show that GB-mediated mitocentric ROS are necessary for optimal apoptogenic factor release, pointing out that factor release need two independent steps, (1) the permeabilization of the mitochondrial outer membrane following GB cleavage of Bid, which trigger Bax/ Bak oligomerization and MOMP, (2) ROS that untether the apoptogenic factors within the intermembrane space for their release into the cytosol. Mitocentric ROS are also required for proper oligonucleosomal DNA fragmentation.…”

“…FasL/Fas interaction induced the death of hepatocytes, predominantly by generation of reactive oxygen species and mitochondrial disruption. 3 The primary role of mitochondria during Fas-mediated apoptosis has been demonstrated in Bcl-2 and Bcl-xL transgenic mice. Bcl-xL or Bcl-2 overexpression blocked programmed cell death by inhibiting cytochrome c release from mitochondria and prevented Fas-mediated apoptosis of hepatocytes.…”

“…Oxidative damage plays a prominent role in hepatic apoptosis mediated via caspase activation. 3 Partial hepatectomy was reported to prevent hepatocyte apoptosis in response to Fas engagement, and alternatively Fas engagement accelerated liver regeneration after hepatectomy. These results suggested that factors triggered by the growth response protected mice against the lethal effects of Fas.…”

“…3,4 On the other hand, hepatocyte apoptosis and liver injury could be also caused by Fas activation induced by Fas ligand-bearing T cells or agonistic antibodies. 2,3 Although multiple death mechanisms can be activated by the death receptors, generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) is a critical one, [5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13] and antioxidants have been shown to alleviate cell death induced by TNF-␣ 9,14 or Fas 7,15 activation. Despite the importance of ROS, the mechanisms of their generation remain controversial and unresolved.…”
