Bid-induced Cytochrome c Release Is Mediated by a Pathway Independent of Mitochondrial Permeability Transition Pore and Bax

Bid, a pro-apoptosis “BH3-only” member of the Bcl-2 family, can be cleaved by caspase-8 after Fas/TNF-R1 engagement. The p15 form of truncated Bid (tBid) translocates to mitochondria and induces cytochrome c release, leading to the activation of downstream caspases and apoptosis. In the current stud...
