Abstract
In CAD patients, FasL in plasma is associated with both apoptotic susceptibility of NK cells and dynamic changes in circulating NK cells. NK cells are also themselves a potential source of soluble FasL. Our findings link NK cell status to a soluble marker with possible atheroprotective effects thereby supporting a beneficial role of NK cells in CAD.
