VDAC regulates AAC-mediated apoptosis and cytochrome c release in yeast

Mitochondrial outer membrane permeabilization is a key event in apoptosis processes leading to the release of lethal factors. We have previously shown that absence of the ADP/ATP carrier (AAC) proteins (yeast orthologues of mammalian ANT proteins) increased the resistance of yeast cells to acetic acid, preventing MOMP and the release of cytochrome c from mitochondria during acetic acid - induce...

Cytochrome C-mediated apoptosis.

Apoptosis, or programmed cell death, is involved in development, elimination of damaged cells, and maintenance of cell homeostasis. Deregulation of apoptosis may cause diseases, such as cancers, immune diseases, and neurodegenerative disorders. Apoptosis is executed by a subfamily of cysteine proteases known as caspases. In mammalian cells, a major caspase activation pathway is the cytochrome c...

Apoptosis and cytochrome c release in cerebellar granule cells.

In the light of both the major role played by released cytochrome c in apoptosis of a variety of cells and the availability of cerebellar granule cells as a model system to investigate apoptosis as a function of time from induction to cell death, we review data aimed at elucidating the events dealing with cytochrome c release from mitochondria as well as its role outside mitochondria. We report...
