Ovarian Epithelial Cancer Cells Cleavage during Cisplatin-induced Apoptosis in Human XIAP Regulates Akt Activity and Caspase-3-dependent
Chemoresistance is a major hurdle for successful cancer therapy. Although multiple mechanisms have been implicated to be involved in cisplatin resistance, recent evidence has suggested that X-linked inhibitor of apoptosis protein (XIAP) may be a key determinant in chemosensitivity in ovarian cancer. Cell fate is determined by a balance between cell survival and apoptotic signaling. Whereas phos...
متن کاملDelayed glial clearance of degenerating axons in aged Drosophila is due to reduced PI3K/Draper activity
Advanced age is the greatest risk factor for neurodegenerative disorders, but the mechanisms that render the senescent brain vulnerable to disease are unclear. Glial immune responses provide neuroprotection in a variety of contexts. Thus, we explored how glial responses to neurodegeneration are altered with age. Here we show that glia-axon phagocytic interactions change dramatically in the aged...
متن کاملGlia Engulf Degenerating Axons during Developmental Axon Pruning
Developmental axon pruning is widely used in constructing the nervous system. Accordingly, diverse mechanisms are likely employed for various forms of axon pruning. In the Drosophila mushroom bodies (MB), gamma neurons initially extend axon branches into both the dorsal and medial MB axon lobes in larvae. Through a well-orchestrated set of developmental events during metamorphosis, axon branche...
متن کاملXIAP-mediated Caspase Inhibition in Hodgkin's Lymphoma–derived B Cells
The malignant Hodgkin and Reed-Sternberg cells of Hodgkin's lymphoma (HL) and HL-derived B cell lines were previously shown to be resistant to different apoptotic stimuli. We show here that cytochrome c fails to stimulate caspases-9 and -3 activation in cytosolic extracts of HL-derived B cells, which is due to high level expression of X-linked inhibitor of apoptosis (XIAP). Coimmunoprecipitatio...
متن کاملThe anti-apoptotic activity of XIAP is retained upon mutation of both the caspase 3– and caspase 9–interacting sites
The X-linked mammalian inhibitor of apoptosis protein (XIAP) has been shown to bind several partners. These partners include caspase 3, caspase 9, DIABLO/Smac, HtrA2/Omi, TAB1, the bone morphogenetic protein receptor, and a presumptive E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme. In addition, we show here that XIAP can bind to itself. To determine which of these interactions are required for it to inhibit ...
