Bcl-2-Associated X Protein Is the Main Mediator of Manumycin A-Induced Apoptosis in Anaplastic Thyroid Cancer Cells [PDF]
We previously demonstrated that the combination of paclitaxel and manumycin A, a farnesyltransferase inhibitor, enhanced apoptosis of anaplastic thyroid cancer (ATC) cells. However, the mechanism of the manumycin-induced apoptosis is not fully understood.

Nasopharyngeal cancer is one of the most common types of cancer in Indonesia, especially head and neck cancer. One of the etiology of this cancer is infection with Epstein-Barr virus. Early diagnosis is difficult to establish because the early signs and symptoms of nasopharyngeal carcinoma are not specific.

Establishment of a specific cell death induction system in Bombyx mori by a transgene with the conserved apoptotic regulator, mouse Bcl‐2‐associated X protein (mouse Bax) [PDF]
Abstract The induction of apoptosis in vivo is a useful tool for investigating the functions and importance of particular tissues. B‐cell leukaemia/lymphoma 2‐associated X protein (Bax) functions as a pro‐apoptotic factor and induces apoptosis in several organisms.
