XIAP discriminates between type I and type II FAS-induced apoptosis

Abstract: FAS (APO-1/CD95) and its physiological ligand, FASL, regulate apoptotic death of unwanted or dangerous cells in many tissues, functioning as a guardian against autoimmunity and cancer development1-4. Distinct cell types differ in the mechanisms by which the ‘death receptor’ FAS triggers their apoptosis1-4. In type I cells, such as lymphocytes, activation of ‘effector caspases’ by FAS-induced activation of caspase-8 suffices for cell killing whereas in type II cells, including hepatocytes and pancreatic β-cells… Show more

“…Another potential determinant is XIAP. Ablation of the XIAP gene in mice or treatment with a Smac mimetic drug enabled Fas-mediated apoptosis to occur independently of Bid in hepatocytes and B cells (Jost et al, 2009). Moreover, downregulation of XIAP bypassed the requirement for mitochondrial amplification and sensitized type II cells to apoptosis stimulation by FasL, Apo2L/TRAIL or anti-DR5 agonist antibody (Vogler et al, 2008;Varfolomeev et al, 2009).…”

“…6 In type II apoptotic cells, caspase-8 activation at the DISC is inhibited by the caspase-3 inhibitor x-linked inhibitor of apoptosis (XIAP) and cellular FLICE inhibitory protein (cFLIP). [6][7][8] Type II cells require the mitochondrial pathway to fully initiate the cell death program via caspase-8 activation at the outer mitochondrial membrane that cleaves Bid to tBid. 9 tBid triggers the oligomerization of Bax/Bak, which initiates mitochondrial outer membrane permeabilization, cytochrome c release and activation of caspase-9.…”
