TNF-α Induces Two Distinct Caspase-8 Activation Pathways
The inflammatory response of mammalian cells to TNF-alpha can be switched to apoptosis either by cotreatment with a protein synthesis inhibitor, cycloheximide, or Smac mimetic, a small molecule mimic of Smac/Diablo protein. Cycloheximide promotes caspase-8 activation by eliminating endogenous caspase-8 inhibitor, c-FLIP, while Smac mimetic does so by triggering autodegradation of cIAP1 and cIAP...
متن کاملHemin Induces the Activation of NLRP3 Inflammasome in N9 Microglial Cells
Background: Hemin is an important sterile component that induces a neuroinflammatory response after intracerebral hemorrhage, in which NLRP3 inflammasome activation has also proved to be involved. Although microglial activation acts as a key contributor in the neuroinflammatory response, the relationship between hemin and NLRP3 in microglia remains poorly understood. Objective: To investigate w...
متن کاملPannexin-1-mediated intracellular delivery of muramyl dipeptide induces caspase-1 activation via cryopyrin/NLRP3 independently of Nod2.
Muramyl dipeptide (MDP), the microbial activator of nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain 2 (Nod2), induces NF-kappaB and MAPK activation, leading to the production of multiple anti-bacterial and proinflammatory molecules. In addition, MDP has been implicated in IL-1beta secretion through the regulation of caspase-1. However, the mechanisms that mediate caspase-1 activation and IL-1beta sec...
متن کاملα-Mangostin Induces Apoptosis and Suppresses Differentiation of 3T3-L1 Cells via Inhibiting Fatty Acid Synthase
α-Mangostin, isolated from the hulls of Garcinia mangostana L., was found to have in vitro cytotoxicity against 3T3-L1 cells as well as inhibiting fatty acid synthase (FAS, EC 2.3.1.85). Our studies showed that the cytotoxicity of α-mangostin with IC(50) value of 20 µM was incomplicated in apoptotic events including increase of cell membrane permeability, nuclear chromatin condensation and mito...
متن کاملEndothelin-1 induces lipolysis in 3T3-L1 adipocytes.
Endothelin-1 (ET-1) affects glucose uptake in adipocytes and may play an important role in adipose physiology. One of the principal functions of adipose tissue is the provision of energy substrate through lipolysis. In the present study, we investigated the effects of ET-1 on lipolysis in 3T3-L1 adipocytes. When glycerol release in the culture medium was measured as an index of lipolysis, the r...
