“…EDLF induces apoptosis more expeditiously in leukemic cells than in solid tumor cells (Nieto-Miguel et al, 2006), through the intracellular activation of the death receptor Fas/CD95 and its recruitment, independently of its natural ligand FasL/CD95L, into lipid rafts (Gajate et al, 2000bMollinedo, 2001, 2007). EDLF accumulates in lipid rafts (van der Luit et al, 2002;Gajate et al, 2004), leading to a redistribution of proteins in these membrane domains that eventually induces cell death Zaremberg et al, 2005;Gajate and Mollinedo, 2007). EDLF was the first agent reported to promote co-clustering of Fas/CD95 and membrane rafts leading to apoptosis (Gajate et al, 2000bGajate and Mollinedo, 2001), representing a new way of killing tumor cells by targeting lipid rafts.…”
