Neuroglobin protects nerve cells from apoptosis by inhibiting the intrinsic pathway of cell death [PDF]
In the past few years, overwhelming evidence has accrued that a high level of expression of the protein neuroglobin protects neurons in vitro, in animal models, and in humans, against cell death associated with hypoxic and amyloid insult. However, until now, the exact mechanism of neuroglobin's protective action has not been determined.

Apoptotic cells can induce non-autonomous apoptosis through the TNF pathway
Apoptotic cells can produce signals to instruct cells in their local environment, including ones that stimulate engulfment and proliferation. We identified a novel mode of communication by which apoptotic cells induce additional apoptosis in the same ...

Tissues contain diverse cell populations that, together, make up physiologically functional units. A remarkable example is the animal epidermis, where neuronal and non-neuronal cells intermingle to allow somatosensory perception.

The dogma that antineoplastic treatments kill tumour cells by damaging essential biological functions has been countered by the notion that treatment itself initiates a programmed cellular response. This response often produces the morphological features of apoptosis and is determined by a network of proliferation and survival genes, some of which are ...

All-Fibre Label-Free Nano-Sensor for Real-Time in situ Early Monitoring of Cellular Apoptosis [PDF]
The achievement of all-fibre functional nano-modules for subcellular label-free measurement has long been pursued due to the limitations of manufacturing techniques. In this paper, a compact all-fibre label-free nano-sensor composed of a fibre taper and zinc oxide nano-gratings is designed and applied for the early monitoring of apoptosis in single ...

Smac mimetic compounds (SMCs) are small molecule drugs that sensitize cancer cells to TNF-α-induced cell death and have multiple immunostimulatory effects through alterations in NF-κB signaling.

The BH3-mimetic ABT-737 effectively kills acute myeloid leukemia initiating cells
The anti-apoptotic proteins Bcl-XL and Bcl-2 are abundantly expressed in hematopoietic stem cells and/or progenitor cells. Furthermore, leukemic cells expressing these proteins are enriched in minimal residual disease cell populations.

FoxO1 signaling in B cell malignancies and its therapeutic targeting
FoxO1 has context‐specific tumor suppressor or oncogenic character in myeloid and B cell malignancies. This includes tumor‐promoting properties such as stemness maintenance and DNA damage tolerance in acute leukemias, or regulation of cell proliferation and survival, or migration in mature B cell malignancies.

Danlu Tongdu tablets treat lumbar spinal stenosis through reducing reactive oxygen species and apoptosis by regulating CDK2/CDK4/CDKN1A expression [PDF]
Lumbar spinal stenosis (LSS) is caused by the compression of the nerve root or cauda equina nerve by stenosis of the lumbar spinal canal or intervertebral foramen, and is manifested as chronic low back and leg pain. Danlu Tongdu (DLTD) tablets can relieve chronic pain caused by LSS, but the molecular mechanism remains largely unknown.
