Sinomenine Hydrochloride Can Ameliorate Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia by Lowering the 5α-Reductase 2 Level and Regulating the Balance between the Proliferation and Apoptosis of Cells

open access: yesMolecules, 2023
Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is a chronic disease that affects the quality of life of older males. Sinomenine hydrochloride (SIN) is the major bioactive alkaloid isolated from the roots of the traditional Chinese medicinal plant Sinomenium acutum ...

Glycosylation of Candida albicans cell wall proteins is critical for induction of innate immune responses and apoptosis of epithelial cells. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
C. albicans is one of the most common fungal pathogen of humans, causing local and superficial mucosal infections in immunocompromised individuals. Given that the key structure mediating host-C.

Apoptosis regulatory protein–protein interaction demonstrates hierarchical scale-free fractal network [PDF]

open access: yesBriefings in Bioinformatics, 2014
Dysregulation or inhibition of apoptosis favors cancer and many other diseases. Understanding of the network interaction of the genes involved in apoptotic pathway, therefore, is essential, to look for targets of therapeutic intervention. Here we used the network theory methods, using experimentally validated 25 apoptosis regulatory proteins and ...

Induction of Noxa-mediated apoptosis by modified vaccinia virus Ankara depends on viral recognition by cytosolic helicases, leading to IRF-3/IFN-β-dependent induction of pro-apoptotic Noxa. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Viral infection is a stimulus for apoptosis, and in order to sustain viral replication many viruses are known to carry genes encoding apoptosis inhibitors. F1L, encoded by the orthopoxvirus modified vaccinia virus Ankara (MVA) has a Bcl-2-like structure.

Identification and Characterization of a Cell Cycle and Apoptosis Regulatory Protein-1 as a Novel Mediator of Apoptosis Signaling by Retinoid CD437 [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2003
CD437, a novel retinoid, causes cell cycle arrest and apoptosis in a number of cancer cells including human breast carcinoma (HBC) by utilizing an undefined retinoic acid receptor/retinoid X receptor-independent mechanism. To delineate mediators of CD437 signaling, we utilized a random antisense-dependent functional knockout genetic approach.

MicroRNA-494-3p prevents liver fibrosis and attenuates hepatic stellate cell activation by inhibiting proliferation and inducing apoptosis through targeting TRAF3

open access: yesAnnals of Hepatology, 2021
Introduction and objectives: Alcoholic hepatitis (AH) is characterized by high morbidity and mortality. MicroRNA-494-3p is possibly involved in the regulation of cancers, but its role in AH has been rarely studied.

Bacterial porin disrupts mitochondrial membrane potential and sensitizes host cells to apoptosis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The bacterial PorB porin, an ATP-binding beta-barrel protein of pathogenic Neisseria gonorrhoeae, triggers host cell apoptosis by an unknown mechanism. PorB is targeted to and imported by host cell mitochondria, causing the breakdown of the mitochondrial

System in biology leading to cell pathology: stable protein-protein interactions after covalent modifications by small molecules or in transgenic cells

open access: yesJournal of Biomedical Science, 2011
Background The physiological processes in the cell are regulated by reversible, electrostatic protein-protein interactions. Apoptosis is such a regulated process, which is critically important in tissue homeostasis and development and leads to complete ...

Targeting apoptosis signaling in pancreatic cancer [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The ability to escape apoptosis or programmed cell death is a hallmark of human cancers, for example pancreatic cancer. This can promote tumorigenesis, since too little cell death by apoptosis disturbs tissue homeostasis.
