An expression vector, pLEF, has been used to produce the intracellular domain (IC) of the human CD95 (Fas/APO-1) apoptosis receptor as a glutathione S-transferase (GST) fusion protein in murine L929 fibroblasts. GST::CD95IC was affinity-purified in a single step using glutathione-Sepharose. Purification of GST::CD95IC from 32P-labelled L929 cells and cleavage with thrombin revealed that CD95IC ...

Using cultured mouse fibroblast L929 cells, this study demonstrated the hemolytic and cytotoxic activities and induction of apoptosis in cells infected with Orientia tsutsugamushi. Low levels of hemolytic activity were detected using heavily infected cells. No hemolysin or cytotoxin were detected in the infected culture fluid regardless of the pathogenicity of the O. tsutsugamushi strains in mi...

The tumour cell lines U937A and L929 form large, loosely packed colonies in vitro and can be killed by the cytokine tumour necrosis factor (TNF).

BACKGROUND Programmed necrosis/necroptosis is an emerging form of cell death that plays important roles in mammalian development and the immune system. The pro-necrotic kinases in the receptor interacting protein (RIP) family are crucial mediators of programmed necrosis. Recent advances in necrosis research have been greatly aided by the identification of chemical inhibitors that block programm...

Nanotechnology has gained great interest due to its widespread application. Anticancer activity of Origanum majorana extract and silver nanoparticles was investigated by MTT assay using human pancreatic adenocarcinoma cell lines (Capan-1), mouse normal fibroblast (L929), colon line (Caco-2). AgNPs@Om exhibited the excellent cytotoxic effect on Capan-1 with viability 29.17% 25.70%, 22.49%, 21.16...
