摘要
Fas-mediated apoptosis has an important role in the maintenance of a homeostatic balance between lymphocyte survival and death. This role is underscored by three consequences of a genetic disorder of abnormal Fas-mediated apoptosis, referred to as autoimmune lymphoproliferative syndrome. Abnormal proliferation of lymphocytes increases the risk for malignancies and results in lymphadenopathy, hepatosplenomegaly and hypersplenism, failure to remove autoreactive lymphocytes (associated with autoimmunity), and inappropriate survival of lymphocytes.
