  • Title: Identification of a FasL-like molecule in leucocytes of the teleost fish gilthead seabream (Sparus aurata L.).
    Author: Cuesta A, Esteban MA, Meseguer J.
    Journal: Dev Comp Immunol; 2003 Jan; 27(1):21-7. PubMed ID: 12477498.
    Abstract:
    The possible expression of FasL in gilthead seabream leucocytes was studied by flow cytometry, immunoblotting and immunocytochemistry, using an anti-mouse FasL monoclonal antibody. The results pointed to a cytosolic FasL-like, but not a membrane-like form, in resting leucocytes from head-kidney, thymus, spleen, blood and peritoneal exudate. Immunoblotting revealed a 19kDa band in resting leucocytes, while activated leucocytes showed the same band and another of 39kDa. The FasL-like molecule is identified in lymphocytes, monocyte-macrophages and acidophilic granulocytes. Phylogenetical and functional implications are suggested.
