'''Cell death proteins''' or '''Programmed cell death protein''' or '''CD279''' (CED) are involved in the process of cellular apoptosis.  '''CED-1''' is a T cell regulator.  CED-1 is expressed on the surface of T cells, B cells and macrophages.  It is a membrane protein and acts in suppressing the immune system during pregnancy, tissue allografts, autoimmune diseases and hepatitis.  CED-1 has 2 ligands: CED-L1 and CED-L2.  Formation of CED-1/CED-L1 complex reduces T cell proliferation at the lymph nodes.  For details on '''CED-4''' see [[CED-4 Apoptosome]].
