Fas-L positive control cells

I have been trying to find Fas ligand on lymphocytes from the intestinal
mucosa and various cell lines.  I have tried several antibodies and varied
the staining conditions, but so far have had little success.  I tried
permeabilizing with saponin, inhibiting cleavage with a MMP inhibitor, and
other things.  My question: do you know of a good positive control that I
can use to validate my protocols--possibly a readily available cell line
with constituitive expression, or a method of induction on e.g. PBLs?  I
would appreciate any suggestions.
