Apoptosis signaling by death receptors

…, M Los, S Wesselborg, ME Peter - European journal of …, 1998 - Wiley Online Library
Death receptors have been recently identified as a subgroup of the TNF‐receptor superfamily
with a predominant function in induction of apoptosis. The receptors are characterized by …

[HTML][HTML] Guidelines for the use and interpretation of assays for monitoring cell death in higher eukaryotes

…, M Oren, J Penninger, S Pervaiz, ME Peter… - Cell Death & …, 2009 - nature.com
Cell death is essential for a plethora of physiological processes, and its deregulation
characterizes numerous human diseases. Thus, the in-depth investigation of cell death and its …

[HTML][HTML] FLICE, a novel FADD-homologous ICE/CED-3–like protease, is recruited to the CD95 (Fas/APO-1) death-inducing signaling complex

…, M Zhang, R Gentz, M Mann, PH Krammer, ME Peter… - Cell, 1996 - cell.com
To identify CAP3 and CAP4, components of the CD95 (Fas/APO-1) death-inducing signaling

[HTML][HTML] Two CD95 (APO-1/Fas) signaling pathways

…, KM Debatin, PH Krammer, ME Peter - The EMBO …, 1998 - embopress.org
We have identified two cell types, each using almost exclusively one of two different CD95 (APO-1/Fas)
signaling pathways. In type I cells, caspase-8 was activated within seconds and …

Cytotoxicity‐dependent APO‐1 (Fas/CD95)‐associated proteins form a death‐inducing signaling complex (DISC) with the receptor.

…, M Germer, M Pawlita, PH Krammer, ME Peter - The EMBO …, 1995 - embopress.org
APO‐1 (Fas/CD95), a member of the tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily, induces
apoptosis upon receptor oligomerization. In a search to identify intracellular signaling …

Adipocytes promote ovarian cancer metastasis and provide energy for rapid tumor growth

…, SD Yamada, ME Peter, K Gwin, E Lengyel - Nature medicine, 2011 - nature.com
Intra-abdominal tumors, such as ovarian cancer 1 , 2 , have a clear predilection for metastasis
to the omentum, an organ primarily composed of adipocytes. Currently, it is unclear why …

Viral FLICE-inhibitory proteins (FLIPs) prevent apoptosis induced by death receptors

…, M Schröter, C Scaffidi, PH Krammer, ME Peter… - Nature, 1997 - nature.com
Viruses have evolved many distinct strategies to avoid the host's apoptotic response 1,2 .
Here we describe a new family of viral inhibitors (v-FLIPs) which interfere with apoptosis …
