Bis, a Bcl-2-binding protein that synergizes with Bcl-2 in preventing cell death [PDF]
Bcl-2 is the best characterized inhibitor of apoptosis, although the molecular basis of this action is not fully understood. Using a protein interaction cloning procedure, we identified a human gene designated as bis (mapped to chromosome 10q25) that encoded a novel Bcl-2-interacting protein. Bis protein showed no significant homology with Bcl-2 family

Leishmania donovani induced increase in macrophage Bcl-2 favors parasite survival
Members of the Bcl-2 family are major regulators of apoptosis in mammalian cells and hence infection-induced perturbations in their expression could result into elimination of the parasites or creation of a niche favoring survival. In this investigation,

Evaluation of Bcl-2 as a marker for chronic kidney disease prediction in cats
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a frequent condition in elderly cats. Bcl-2 is linked to kidney disease through the processes of apoptosis and fibrosis.

Circulating histones as clinical biomarkers in critically ill conditions
Circulating histones are emerging as promising biomarkers in critical illness due to their diagnostic, prognostic, and therapeutic potential. Detection methods such as ELISA and mass spectrometry provide reliable approaches for quantifying histone levels in plasma samples.

Correlation between Bcl-2 Expression and the Efficacy of Bcl-2 Inhibitors in Patients with Myelodysplastic Syndromes [PDF]
Background The heterogeneity of myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) is strong, with poor efficacy of existing therapeutic regimens and large individual differences in patient prognosis. B-cell lymphomato-2 (Bcl-2) protein is highly expressed in patients with

Targeting BCL-2 regulated apoptosis in cancer
The ability of a cell to undergo mitochondrial apoptosis is governed by pro- and anti-apoptotic members of the BCL-2 protein family. The equilibrium of pro- versus anti-apoptotic BCL-2 proteins ensures appropriate regulation of programmed cell death ...

Variants of bcl-2 specific siRNA for silencing antiapoptotic bcl-2 in pancreatic cancer [PDF]
Pancreatic cancer remains a devastating diagnosis with only limited therapeutic options. Specific inhibition of expression of target genes has become possible using small interfering (si) RNAs. We therefore investigated how far siRNA specific for bcl-2 may serve as a therapeutic option for pancreatic cancer in vitro and in vivo.siRNAs targeting two ...

Cyclic nucleotide signaling as a drug target in retinitis pigmentosa
Disruptions in cGMP and cAMP signaling can contribute to retinal dysfunction and photoreceptor loss in retinitis pigmentosa. This perspective examines the mechanisms and evaluates emerging evidence on targeting these pathways as a potential therapeutic strategy to slow or prevent retinal degeneration.

Bcl-XL but Not Bcl-2 Is a Potential Target in Medulloblastoma Therapy
Medulloblastoma (MB) is the most common solid tumour in children and, despite current treatment with a rather aggressive combination therapy, accounts for 10% of all deaths associated with paediatric cancer.
