The molecular mechanism of cell death due to hypoxia has not been elucidated. Our recent observations that overexpression of the anti-apoptotic proto-oncogene bcl-2 and a bcl-2-related gene, bcl-x, prevents hypoxic cell death suggest that hypoxia induces apoptosis. Using electron microscopy and confocal and nonconfocal fluorescence microscopy, we show here that hypoxia does, in fact, induce bot...
Liver fibrosis is a major cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide due to chronic viral hepatitis and, more recently, from fatty liver diseases. Activation and proliferation of hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) represent a key aspect of fibrogenesis and are associated with progressive reduction of HSC apoptosis. Bcl-x, an antiapoptotic member of Bcl-2 gene family, plays a role in apoptosis regula...
background and objectives: apoptosis of eosinophils is of significant value in assessing the airway inflammation in patients with asthma. our purpose was to investigate the degree of expression of the bcl-2 protein in sputum eosinophils during acute asthma exacerbation and its relationship with exacerbation severity. materials and methods: the study was carried out in mostafa khomeini hospit...
Absence of interleukin 2 (IL-2) from IL-2-dependent cells, such as the cytotoxic T-cell line CTLL2, causes DNA fragmentation and programmed cell death (apoptosis). We found that, upon initiation, DNA degradation proceeds rapidly. IL-2-deprived CTLL2 cells can be rescued from apoptosis by the addition of IL-2 2 h prior to the onset of detectable DNA breakdown. Addition of inhibitors of transcrip...
The role of Bcl-2 as an anti-apoptotic protein has been well documented. In the present work, we present evidence that Bcl-2 may also be involved in cell growth regulation. SC-M1 is an unique cell line which responds to retinoic acid (RA) treatment with reversible growth arrest [Shyu, Jiang, Huang, Chang, Wu, Roffler and Yeh (1995) Eur. J. Cancer 31, 237-243]. In this study, when treated with R...
We recently identified a new highly divergent Bcl-2 related protein, named Bcl-wav, with phylogenetic pattern restricted to aquatic anamniotes. In zebrafish gastrula, bclwav gene silencing resulted in calcium-dependent cytoskeleton remodeling leading to convergence and extension movements defaults and abnormal orientation of the larva notochord. Beyond its function in cell migration, Bcl-wav wa...
Terminal prostate cancer is refractory to conventional anticancer treatments because of frequent overexpression of antiapoptotic proteins Bcl-2 and/or Bcl-x(L). Adenovirus-mediated delivery of melanoma differentiation associated gene-7/interleukin-24 (mda-7/IL-24), a secreted cytokine having cancer-selective apoptosis-inducing properties, profoundly inhibits prostate cancer cell growth. However...
Southern blotting was used to detect rearrangement of the bcl-2 gene in 104 cases of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma subclassified by the Working Formulation, 24 cases of B cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia (B-CLL) and 14 cases of T cell malignancy. Earlier workers reported rearrangement of this gene (located on chromosome 18) in a major fraction of follicular lymphomas, lymphomas in which a 14;18 chrom...
The anti-apoptotic gene, B-cell lymphoma-2 (Bcl-2), has been reported to be overexpressed in gliomas and is related to tumor prognosis, suggesting a potential therapeutic target. Additionally, recent studies have demonstrated the existence of brain glioma stem cells (BGSCs) which are tumorigenic, self-renewable and dominate the biological behavior...
background: linoleic acid (la) is a polyunsaturated fatty acid present in high concentrations in follicular fluid, when added to maturation culture media, it affects oocyte competence.objective: in the present study, we investigated effect of linoleic acid supplementation on in vitro maturation, embryo development and apoptotic related gene expression in ovinematerials and methods: the experime...
