Three-dimensional microscopy characterization of death receptor 5 expression by over-activated human primary CD4+ T cells and apoptosis.

Activation-induced cell death is a natural process that prevents tissue damages from over-activated immune cells. TNF-Related apoptosis ligand (TRAIL), a TNF family member, induces apoptosis of infected and tumor cells by binding to one of its two death receptors, DR4 or DR5. TRAIL was reported to b...
