The inhibitory role of stigmasterol on tumor growth by inducing apoptosis in Balb/c mouse with spontaneous breast tumor (SMMT)

open access: yesBMC Pharmacology and Toxicology, 2022
Background Breast cancer is one of the most common types of cancer in women worldwide. Anti-apoptotic activity of cancer cells is considered the main reason for drug resistance in BC which reduces the 5-year survival rate of patients and is still ...

Structures of p53/BCL-2 complex suggest a mechanism for p53 to antagonize BCL-2 activity

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
Mitochondrial apoptosis is strictly controlled by BCL-2 family proteins through a subtle network of protein interactions. The tumor suppressor protein p53 triggers transcription-independent apoptosis through direct interactions with BCL-2 family proteins,

Efficacy and safety of Venetoclax-based regimens in relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma: a systematic review and meta-analysis of prospective clinical trials

open access: yesAnnals of Medicine, 2023
Background Multiple myeloma (MM) is an incurable malignancy. Venetoclax (VEN) shows a meaningful effect in MM patients who are relapsed or refractory (RR) to previous standard therapies.Objective This study aimed to assess the efficacy and safety of VEN ...

Beyond cell death - antiapoptotic Bcl-2 proteins regulate migration and invasion of colorectal cancer cells in vitro. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Migration and invasion of malignant cells are prerequisites for cancer progression and metastasis. The Bcl-2 family of proteins consists of about 25 members and has been extensively studied in the context of apoptosis.

Predisposition to Apoptosis in Hepatocellular Carcinoma: From Mechanistic Insights to Therapeutic Strategies

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2019
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) ranks among the most rapidly evolving cancers in the Western world. The majority of HCCs develop on the basis of a chronic inflammatory liver damage that predisposes liver cancer development and leads to deregulation of ...

The p53–Bcl-2 connection [PDF]

open access: yesCell Death & Differentiation, 2006
The tumor suppressor p53 and the proto-oncogene Bcl-2 were two of the earliest identified cancer genes. Mutant p53 proteins were first discovered in transformed murine cell lines,1,2 whereas Bcl-2 translocations were first identified in human follicular lymphoma.3,4,5 Despite this shared cancer relevance, they were initially thought to have little else

SnapShot: BCL-2 Proteins

open access: yesCell, 2009
BCL-2 family proteins regulate apoptotic cell death. BCL-2 proteins localize to intracellular membranes such as endoplasmic reticulum and mitochondria, and some family members translocate from the cytoplasm to mitochondria following a cell death stimulus.

Bcl-2 [PDF]

open access: yesOncoImmunology, 2012
Recent findings from our laboratory provide the first indication that overexpression of Bcl-2 in Eµ-myc transgenic cells enhances tumor immunosurveillance by inducing NKG2D ligands. Initial evidence suggests that this model is relevant to human patients. Thus, antitumor therapies that target Bcl-2 harbor the risk of reducing tumor immunogenicity.
