| Product type: | Primary antibodies | 
| Host species: | Mouse | 
| Product name: | Mouse Monoclonal to CD95 / Fas | 
| Antigen: | CD95 / Fas | 
| Clonality: | Monoclonal | 
| Clone: | LT95 | 
| Isotype: | IgG1 | 
| Immunogen: | HUT-78 human T cell lymphoma cell line | 
| Format: | purified | 
| Specificity: | The antibody LT95 reacts with CD95 (Fas/APO-1), a 46 kDa single chain type I glycoprotein of the tumour necrosis factor/nerve growth factor (TNF/NGF) receptor superfamily, expressed on a variety of normal and neoplastic cells. It seems that the antibody LT95 does not induce Fas mediated apoptosis, although it cross-blocks anti-Fas DX2 antibody that recognizes a functional epitope of Fas molecule.  |

| Background: | CD95 (Fas, APO-1), a 46 kDa transmembrane glycoprotein, is a cell death receptor of the TNFR superfamily. Stimulation of CD95 results in aggregation of its intracellular death domains, formation of the death-inducing signaling complex (DISC) and activation of caspases. In type I cells caspase 3 is activated by high amounts of caspase 8 generated at the DISC, in type II cells low concentration of caspase 8 activates pathway leading to the release of cytochrome c from mitochondria and activation of caspase 3 by cytochom c. Besides its roles in induction of apoptosis, Fas also triggers pro-inflammatory cytokine responses. |
