Triggering of Programmed Erythrocyte Death by Alantolactone
The sesquiterpene alantolactone counteracts malignancy, an effect at least in part due to stimulation of suicidal death or apoptosis of tumor cells. Signaling of alantolactone induced apoptosis involves altered gene expression and mitochondrial depolarization. Erythrocytes lack mitochondria and nuclei but may enter suicidal death or eryptosis, which is characterized by cell shrinkage and cell m...
متن کاملTriggering of Suicidal Erythrocyte Death by Zosuquidar.
BACKGROUND The P-glycoprotein inhibitor zosuquidar (LY335979) is clinically used to augment the effect of cytostatic drugs on suicidal tumor cell death or apoptosis. The present study explored whether the substance is cytotoxic to erythrocytes. Upon injury, erythrocytes may undergo suicidal cell death or eryptosis, which is characterized by cell shrinkage and translocation of cell membrane phos...
متن کاملCell volume and monovalent ion transporters: their role in cell death machinery triggering and progression.
Cell death is accompanied by the dissipation of electrochemical gradients of monovalent ions across the plasma membrane that, in turn, affects cell volume via modulation of intracellular osmolyte content. In numerous cell types, apoptotic and necrotic stimuli caused cell shrinkage and swelling, respectively. Thermodynamics predicts a cell type-specific rather than an ubiquitous impact of monova...
متن کاملTriggering of Suicidal Erythrocyte Death by Topotecan.
BACKGROUND/AIMS The topoisomerase I inhibitor topotecan is used as treatment of various malignancies. The substance is effective by triggering tumor cell apoptosis. In analogy to apoptosis of nucleated cells, erythrocytes may enter eryptosis, a suicidal death characterized by cell shrinkage and cell membrane scrambling with phosphatidylserine translocation to the outer face of the erythrocyte m...
متن کاملTriggering of Suicidal Erythrocyte Death by Pazopanib.
BACKGROUND/AIMS The multi-targeted kinase inhibitor pazopanib, a drug employed for the treatment of a wide variety of malignancies, has previously been shown to trigger apoptosis. Similar to apoptosis of nucleated cells, erythrocytes may enter suicidal death or eryptosis, characterized by cell shrinkage and cell membrane scrambling with phosphatidylserine translocation to the erythrocyte surfac...
