Fas ligand (FASL or CD95L) is a type-II transmembrane protein expressed on various types of cells, including cytotoxic T lymphocytes, monocytes, neutrophils, breast epithelial cells, vascular endothelial cells and natural killer (NK) cells. It binds with its receptor, called FAS receptor (also called CD95) and plays a crucial role in the regulation of the immune system and in induction of apoptosis, a programmed cell death.
