NF-κB inducers upregulate cFLIP, a cycloheximide-sensitive inhibitor of death receptor signaling

S Kreuz, D Siegmund, P Scheurich… - Molecular and cellular …, 2001 - Am Soc Microbiol
The caspase 8 homologue FLICE-inhibitory protein (cFLIP) is a potent negative regulator of
death receptor-induced apoptosis. We found that cFLIP can be upregulated in some cell …
