Degradation of Bcl-2 by XIAP and ARTS Promotes Apoptosis

open access: yesCell Reports, 2017
Summary: We describe a mechanism by which the anti-apoptotic B cell lymphoma 2 (Bcl-2) protein is downregulated to induce apoptosis. ARTS (Sept4_i2) is a tumor suppressor protein that promotes cell death through specifically antagonizing XIAP (X-linked ...

Differential dependence on Beclin 1 for the regulation of pro-survival autophagy by Bcl-2 and Bcl-xL in HCT116 colorectal cancer cells. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2010
Autophagy is described to be involved in homeostasis, development and disease, both as a survival and a death process. Its involvement in cell death proceeds from interrelationships with the apoptotic pathway.

Análise da correlação entre a expressão da p53 e do bcl-2 com o estadiamento e o prognóstico do adenocarcinoma colorretal [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
PURPOSE: To analyze the correlation between p53 and bcl-2 expression and colorectal adenocarcinoma staging and prognosis. METHODS: This was a retrospective series of 125 colorectal adenocarcinoma patients (67 women and 58 men; ages 30-87 years) who ...

BCL-W has a fundamental role in B cell survival and lymphomagenesis. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Compromised apoptotic signaling is a prerequisite for tumorigenesis. The design of effective therapies for cancer treatment depends on a comprehensive understanding of the mechanisms that govern cell survival.

Targeting Antiapoptotic Bcl-2 Family Members with Cell-Permeable BH3 Peptides Induces Apoptosis Signaling, Death in Head, Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma Cells

open access: yesNeoplasia: An International Journal for Oncology Research, 2007
Head, neck squamous cell carcinomas (HNSCCs) are frequently characterized by chemotherapy, radiation resistance, by overexpression of Bcl-XL, an antiapoptotic member of the Bcl-2 protein family. In this report, we examined whether cell-permeable peptides

Expression of apoptosis regulating proteins p53 and bcl-2 in psoriasis

open access: yesIndian Journal of Pathology and Microbiology, 2015
Background: Dysfunctional apoptosis has an important role in the development of several skin diseases. Psoriatic keratinocytes possess an enhanced ability to resist apoptosis, which might be one of the key pathogenetic mechanisms in psoriasis.

Structural insights for selective disruption of Beclin 1 binding to Bcl-2

open access: yesCommunications Biology, 2023
Stimulation of autophagy could provide powerful therapies for multiple diseases, including cancer and neurodegeneration. An attractive drug target for this purpose is Bcl-2, which inhibits autophagy by binding to the Beclin 1 BH3-domain.

The BCL-2 Family Reunion [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Cell, 2010
B cell CLL/lymphoma-2 (BCL-2) and its relatives comprise the BCL-2 family of proteins, which were originally characterized with respect to their roles in controlling outer mitochondrial membrane integrity and apoptosis. Current observations expand BCL-2 family function to include numerous cellular pathways.

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.

Effect of Oocyte Vitrification Before and After in Vitro Maturation Towards Bcl-2, Bax and Bcl-2/Bax Ratio Expression [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Objectives: to compare the expression of Bcl-2, Bax and Bcl-2/Bax ratio in cumulus cell and oocyte between vitrified oocyte pre and post in vitro maturation.Materials and Methods: Maturation was operated in medium TC 100 µl for 24 hours.
