Does interferon-alpha enhance TRAIL-mediated apoptosis by up-regulating caspase-8 transcription in human hepatoma cells?
We demonstrate that caspase-8 is a target gene of IFNalpha and provide evidence showing that IFNalpha treatment sensitizes cells for apoptosis via enhanced caspase-8 transcription.
