ABSTRACT:
Anti-Fas (APO-1, CD95) autoantibodies arm found in human s, which antibodies arm biologically functional. Peptide fragments of Fas recognized by such antibodies, and antibodies specific for such peptides, inhibit or promote apoptosis and cellular proliferation. Assay methods making use of Fas peptides or antibodies enable identification of further agents which modulate apoptosis and/or cellular proliferation.
