BACKGROUND Follicular lymphoma is characterized by the t(14;18) translocation resulting in constitutive expression of BCL-2 protein; however approximately 10-15% of follicular lymphomas do not express BCL-2 protein, and a small fraction of these cases does not exhibit translocation of the BCL-2 gene either. It is highly debated whether cases of follicular lymphoma without BCL-2 gene rearrangeme...
Abstract A poptosis r elated protein in T GF-? s ignaling pathway (ARTS) was originally discovered cells undergoing apoptosis response to TGF-?, but ARTS also acts downstream of many other apoptotic stimuli. induces by antagonizing the anti-apoptotic proteins XIAP and Bcl-2. Here we identified pro-apoptotic Sept4/ARTS gene as a p53-responsive target gene. Ectopic p53 variety p53-inducing agents...
Most of human follicular lymphomas possess the t(14;18) chromosome translocation that juxtaposes the IgH gene to the 3' region of bcl-2 in a head-to-tail configuration. Here we show that the rearrangement of the bcl-2 gene occurs in a significant fraction (approximately of 10%) of B cell CLL. In all cases analyzed, breakpoints on chromosome 18 clustered at the 5' flanking region of the bcl-2 ge...
To study the effect of apoptosis on gene amplification, we have constructed HeLa S3 cell lines in which the expression of bcl-2 (BCL2) can be controlled by tetracycline in the growth medium. Induction of Bcl-2 expression caused a temporary delay of apoptosis and resulted in roughly a 3-fold increase in the frequency of resistant colonies when cells were selected with trimetrexate. This resistan...
Background and Aims: Cadmium is an important environmental pollutant and a potent toxicant to organisms. However, the toxicity of Cadmium and its influences on stomach is still unclear. We examined the effects of intraperitoneal injection of Cadmium on mRNA expression of Bcl-2 and Bax genes in rat stomach. Materials and Methods: Twenty eight male Wistar rats weighing 200 to 250 g were randomly...
Treatment of M1 myeloid leukemic cells with interleukin 6 (IL-6) or dexamethasone (DEX), both of which induce differentiation in these cells, down-regulated expression of the apoptosis-suppressing gene bcl-2 and the apoptosis-promoting gene bax but up-regulated expression of the apoptosis-suppressing gene bcl-XL. There was a higher expression of bcl-XL in cells treated with DEX or DEX plus IL-6...
Using a protein interaction cloning technique, we identified cDNAs that encode a novel Bcl-2-binding protein, termed BAG-1. The BAG-1 protein shares no significant homology with Bcl-2 or other Bcl-2 family proteins, which can form homo- and heterodimers. In gene transfer experiments using a human lymphoid cell line, Jurkat, coexpression of BAG-1 and Bcl-2 provided markedly increased protection ...
Follicular lymphoma (FL) is a low-grade B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) that frequently transforms into diffuse aggressive NHL. The majority of FLs display a t(14; 18) translocation that places the bcl-2 gene into juxtaposition with the lg heavy-chain (H) gene locus. Morphologically transformed malignant FL cells retain their t(14;18) translocation and may acquire additional genetic abnorma...
Background: The effect of conditioned medium on apoptosis and invasion of MCF-7 is still debated. Carnosic acid, a component of rosemary extract, is also reported to have anti-cancer property. Therefore, we studied the occurrence of apoptosis through AIF-dependent pathway in MCF-7 cells treated with conditioned medium and rosemary extract by evaluating the expression of AIF, P53, Bcl-2 and Bax ...
Human oral cancer cells may have any of several genetic changes, but the role of the bcl-2 oncogene is relatively unexplored. To find out if this gene plays a significant role and whether it could act as a target for gene therapy of oral cancer, we have examined the effects of an anti-bcl-2 ribozyme on the phenotype of oral cancer cells. A hammer-head ribozyme was designed to cleave the bcl-2 t...
