Making ROS for apoptosis
Dynein holds still ynein, well-known for moving cargo down microtubules, is now also shown to anchor its cargo at the target site, according to results from Renald Delanoue and Ilan Davis (University of Edinburgh, UK). Dynein’s cargoes include the wingless and runt mRNAs, which concentrate at the apical tip of fly embryos. Delanoue and Davis found that agents that disrupt microtubule function c...
متن کاملROS signaling during granzyme B-mediated apoptosis
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are involved in cell signaling, aging, and death and play a role in carcinogenesis. However, whether ROS are bystanders or active effectors of apoptosis was unclear until recently. New evidence shows that the killer lymphocyte protease granzyme B activates a conserved biochemical pathway centered on respiratory chain disruption to trigger mitocentric ROS-dependent ...
متن کاملShikonin induces ROS-based mitochondria-mediated apoptosis in colon cancer
Colon cancer is the third most common malignancy worldwide, and chemotherapy is a widely used strategy in clinical therapy. Chemotherapy-resistant of colon cancer is the main cause of recurrence and progression. Novel drugs with efficacy and safety in treating colon cancer are urgently needed. Shikonin, a naphthoquinone derived from the roots of the herbal plant Lithospermum erythrorhizon, has ...
متن کاملUCP2 Inhibits ROS-Mediated Apoptosis in A549 under Hypoxic Conditions
The Crosstalk between a tumor and its hypoxic microenvironment has become increasingly important. However, the exact role of UCP2 function in cancer cells under hypoxia remains unknown. In this study, UCP2 showed anti-apoptotic properties in A549 cells under hypoxic conditions. Over-expression of UCP2 in A549 cells inhibited reactive oxygen species (ROS) accumulation (P<0.001) and apoptosis (P<...
متن کاملClomiphene Citrate Induces ROS-Mediated Apoptosis in Mammalian Oocytes
The clomiphene citrate (CC), a nonsteroidal triphenylethylene compound, is a first line of medicine used for the induction of ovulation in anovulatory women worldwide. In spite of high ovulation induction with the use of CC, the pregnancy rate is much lower. Such a discrepancy could be due to the peripheral anti-estrogenic effect of CC, particularly at the level of ovary, endometrium and cervic...
