Fractional killing arises from cell‐to‐cell variability in overcoming a caspase activity threshold
Abstract When cells are exposed to death ligands such as TRAIL, a fraction undergoes apoptosis and a fraction survives; if surviving cells are re‐exposed to TRAIL, fractional killing is once again observed. Therapeutic antibodies directed against TRAIL receptors also cause fractional killing, even a...
