Caspase-8 is a unique member of caspases with a dual role in cell death and survival. Caspase-8 expression is often lost in some tumors, but increased in others, indicating a potential pro-survival function in cancer.
Caspase-8 (Casp8) acts as an initiator in cell apoptosis signaling. However, the role of Casp8 in tuning the tumor immune microenvironment remains controversial due to the complicated crosstalk between immune-tolerogenic apoptotic cell death and immunogenic cell death cascades.


OS, Osteosarcoma: Click to Expand ⟱
Osteosarcoma is a type of cancer that starts in the bones. It is the most common type of bone cancer, and it usually affects children and young adults, although it can occur at any age. Osteosarcoma typically develops in the long bones of the body, such as the arms and legs, but it can also occur in other bones, including the pelvis and jaw.
