PG - 103-10 AB - Peripheral T cells are resistant to Fas receptor (FasR/CD95)-mediated apoptosis. After prolonged treatment with interleukin-2 (IL-2), these T cells develop a Fas-sensitive phenotype. To clarify the molecular mechanism of apoptosis susceptibility, mRNA expression of FasR-associated proteins [Fas-associating protein with death domain (FADD), receptor-interacting protein (RIP), and Fas-associated phosphatase-1 (FAP-1)] has been investigated in IL-2 activated T cells. Competitive reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction analysis revealed that FADD and RIP mRNA were equally expressed in freshly isolated resting T cells and IL-2-activated T cells. In contrast, FAP-1 mRNA was produced more abundantly by Fas-resistant resting T cells than by Fas-sensitive activated T cells. These findings suggested that sensitivity to FasR-mediated apoptosis in T cells could be correlated with down-regulation of FAP-1 expression. Additionally, CD45RO+ memory T cells expressed a larger amount of FAP-1 mRNA than did CD45RA+ naive T cells.
