Fas ligand expression by neoplastic T lymphocytes mediates elimination of CD8+ cytotoxic T lymphocytes in mycosis fungoides : A potential mechanism of tumor immune escape?

Mycosis fungoides (MF) is the most common form of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL) and arises from the accumulation and clonal proliferation of epidermotropic, CD4+/CD45RO+ (helper/memory) T lymphocytes.
