Fas/TNFRSF6/CD95 Simple Plex

Fas (Fibroblast-associated), also known as Apo-1, CD95, and TNFRSF6, was originally identified as a cell-surface protein that binds to monoclonal antibodies that are cytolytic for various human cell lines. Alternatively spliced cDNAs encoding multiple Fas isoforms, including a soluble form of Fas, have been identified. Fas is highly expressed in epithelial cells, hepatocyes, activated mature lymphocytes, virus-transformed lymphocytes and other tumor cells. Fas expression has also been detected in mouse thymus, liver, heart, lung, kidney and ovary.
