Mechanisms of cell death in heart disease.
The major cardiac syndromes, myocardial infarction and heart failure, are responsible for a large portion of deaths worldwide. Genetic and pharmacological manipulations indicate that cell death is an important component in the pathogenesis of both diseases. Cells die primarily by apoptosis or necrosis, and autophagy has been associated with cell death. Apoptosis has long been recognized as a hi...
متن کاملIroning Out Cell Death Mechanisms
lamin gene (Lmna) develop an EDMD-like syndrome soon after birth and die within 6 weeks of cardiovascular disease. A recent publication by Chen et al. (2012) reports the remarkable finding that downregulation of Sun1 expression in Lmnadeficient mice significantly extended their life span along with amelioration of cardiac pathology. Thus, LINC complexes could represent viable therapeutic target...
متن کاملOxidative stress-induced cell death of human oral neutrophils.
Polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN) play crucial roles in protecting hosts against invading microbes and in the pathogenesis of inflammatory tissue injury. Although PMN migrate into mucosal layers of digestive and respiratory tracts, only limited information is available of their fate and function in situ. We previously reported that, unlike circulating PMN (CPMN), PMN in the oral cavity spontan...
متن کاملMechanisms of Degranulation in Neutrophils
Neutrophils are critical inflammatory cells that cause tissue damage in a range of diseases and disorders. Being bone marrow-derived white blood cells, they migrate from the bloodstream to sites of tissue inflammation in response to chemotactic signals and induce inflammation by undergoing receptor-mediated respiratory burst and degranulation. Degranulation from neutrophils has been implicated ...
متن کاملCell death execution mechanisms in Drosophila
Programmed cell death (PCD) plays a crucial role in neural development as well as in neurodegeneration. To dissect the molecular and genetic pathways of neural cell death, we performed genetic studies using the fruit fly, Drosophila. Our reverse genetic studies showed the significant similarities of cell death execution mechanisms between mammals and Drosophila. A comprehensive search for neura...
