Fas ligand and anti-Fas antibodies is highly variable. Jurkat T cells lacking CD47 (integrin-
associated protein) are relatively resistant to Fas-mediated death but are efficiently killed by
Fas ligand or anti-Fas IgM (CH11) upon expression of CD47. Lack of CD47 impairs events
downstream of Fas activation including caspase activation, poly-(ADP-ribose) polymerase
cleavage, cytochrome c release from mitochondria, loss of mitochondrial membrane …
