Armeniacae Semen Regulates Apoptosis and Cell Cycle Progression in MCF-7, MDA-MB-231, and T47D Breast Cancer Cell Lines [PDF]
Background: Amygdalin is a glycoside ingredient of rosacea plants that exerts an antitumor effect by blocking the growth of the tumor cells. Therefore, we aimed to use the Armeniacae semen, a member of the Rosacea family, which contains a large amount of

IFI27 and BAX are Essential for GSDME-Mediated Myeloma Cell Pyroptosis. [PDF]
The proposed model of GSDME‐mediated MM cell pyroptosis modulated by IFI27 and BAX. IFI27 is downregulated in MM cells. Upon pyroptotic stimulation, such as DOX or ETO treatment, IFI27 is induced, therefore liberating BAX from BCL‐2 ❶. BAX is then recruited to mitochondria and forms homo‐oligomeric channels in OMM, therefore leading to cytochrome C ...
