Pro-apoptotic gene expression mediated by the p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase signal transduction pathway.
Neurotrophic factor deprivation causes apoptosis by a mechanism that requires macromolecular synthesis. This fact suggests that gene expression is necessary to achieve cell death. To identify mRNA that is expressed in apoptotic cells we used subtractive hybridization with cDNA prepared from neuronal pheochromocytoma cells. Monoamine oxidase (MAO) expression was increased in cells during nerve g...
متن کاملInactivation of mitogen-activated protein kinase signaling pathway reduces caspase-14 expression in impaired keratinocytes
Objective(s):Several investigations have revealed that caspase-14 is responsible for the epidermal differentiation and cornification, as well as the regulation of moisturizing effect. However, the precise regulation mechanism is still not clear. This study was aimed to investigate the expression of caspase-14 in filaggrin-deficient normal human epidermal keratinocytes (NHEKs) and to explore the...
متن کاملCytotoxicity mediated by the Fas ligand (FasL)-activated apoptotic pathway in stem cells.
Whereas it is now clear that human bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) can be immunosuppressive and escape cytotoxic lymphocytes (CTLs) in vitro and in vivo, the mechanisms of this phenomenon remain controversial. Here, we test the hypothesis that BMSCs suppress immune responses by Fas-mediated apoptosis of activated lymphocytes and find both Fas and FasL expression by primary BMSCs. Jurkat cells...
متن کاملThe major apoptotic pathway activated and suppressed by poliovirus.
Cells respond to poliovirus infection by switching on the apoptotic program, implementation of which is usually suppressed by viral antiapoptotic functions. We show here that poliovirus infection of HeLa cells or derivatives of MCF-7 cells was accompanied by the efflux of cytochrome c from mitochondria. This efflux occurred during both abortive infection (e.g., interrupted by guanidine-HCl and ...
متن کاملModulation of adhesion-dependent cAMP signaling by echistatin and alendronate.
We measured intracellular cAMP levels in cells during attachment and spreading on different extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins. Increases in cAMP were observed within minutes when cells attached to fibronectin, vitronectin, and a synthetic RGD-containing fibronectin peptide (Petite 2000), but not when they adhered to another integrin alpha nu beta 3 ligand, echistatin. Because echistatin also ...
