BIM-mediated apoptosis and oncogene addiction
addiction is a phenomenon whereby suppression of a driver oncogene is associated with dramatic tumor regression that has been observed in experimental models and in response to targeted therapies [1]. However, the mechanism by which oncogene inactivation induces this massive reduction in tumor burden is not clear. In tumors addicted to the MYC oncogene, suppression of this oncogene leads to tum...

The major purpose of our research is to study cooperative planning for multi-agent system in time-critical environment. The RoboCup simulator league is the most interesting target for our research. Each agent of the team 11monkeys is realized as an autonomous agent that has two sets of rules, namely state dependent rules and position speciied rules. We call the former dynamic role and the latte...
متن کاملA novel Mcl1 variant inhibits apoptosis via increased Bim sequestration
Members of the Bcl-2 protein family are frequently deregulated in tumors as they critically control cell death induction in mammalian cells. Alterations of these proteins may cause resistance to chemotherapy-induced cell death and immune responses. By serendipity we cloned a variant of the anti-apoptotic Bcl2-family member Myeloid cell leukemia-1 (Mcl1) from human neuroblastoma and leukemia cel...
متن کاملER Stress Triggers Apoptosis by Activating BH3-Only Protein Bim
Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress caused by misfolded proteins or cytotoxic drugs can kill cells and although activation of this pathway has been implicated in the etiology of certain degenerative disorders its mechanism remains unresolved. Bim, a proapoptotic BH3-only member of the Bcl-2 family is required for initiation of apoptosis induced by cytokine deprivation or certain stress stimuli. I...
متن کاملBH3-Only Protein BIM Mediates Heat Shock-Induced Apoptosis
Acute heat shock can induce apoptosis through a canonical pathway involving the upstream activation of caspase-2, followed by BID cleavage and stimulation of the intrinsic pathway. Herein, we report that the BH3-only protein BIM, rather than BID, is essential to heat shock-induced cell death. We observed that BIM-deficient cells were highly resistant to heat shock, exhibiting short and long-ter...
