The Fas/CD95 receptor regulates the death of autoreactive B cells and the selection of antigen-specific B cells
Cell death receptors have crucial roles in the regulation of immune responses. Here we review recent in vivo data confirming that the Fas death receptor (TNFSR6) on B cells is important for the regulation of autoimmunity since the impairment of only Fas function on B cells results in uncontrolled au...
