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.
CLL, Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia: Click to Expand ⟱
CLL is a type of cancer that affects the lymphoid cells, which are a type of white blood cell. It is characterized by the accumulation of mature, but dysfunctional, lymphocytes in the bone marrow, lymph nodes, and spleen. CLL is typically a slow-growing disease, and many patients may not experience symptoms for years after diagnosis.
