The downregulation of Mcl-1 via USP9X inhibition sensitizes solid tumors to Bcl-xl inhibition

open access: yesBMC Cancer, 2012
Background It has been shown in many solid tumors that the overexpression of the pro-survival Bcl-2 family members Bcl-xL and Mcl-1 confers resistance to a variety of chemotherapeutic agents.

Multidisciplinary Strategies for Targeting Tumor Dormancy in Breast Cancer Therapeutics: Hallmarks, Mechanism, and Approaches

open access: yesiMetaMed, EarlyView.
Clinical phases and classification of breast tumor dormancy. Tumor dormancy is described as the period after treatment until residual tumor cells become detectable as relapsing disease in clinic. During the period of clinical tumor dormancy, tumor mass dormancy and cellular dormancy may coexist.

Bcl‐xL interrupts oxidative activation of neutral sphingomyelinase

open access: yesFEBS Letters, 2002
Recent studies demonstrate a role for intracellular oxidation in the regulation of neutral sphingomyelinase (N‐SMase). Glutathione (GSH) has been shown to regulate N‐SMase in vitro and in cells. However, it has not been established whether the effects of GSH in cells are due to direct action on N‐SMase.

Extracellular Vesicle‐Mediated Communication Between Anterior Cruciate Ligament and Bone Marrow Cells Modulates Hamstring Tenocyte Behavior and Apoptosis

open access: yesThe Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Following anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction, enhancing hamstring tenocyte activity and minimizing apoptosis are critical for preventing graft failure and promoting ligamentization. This study investigated the therapeutic potential of extracellular vesicles (EVs) derived from a coculture of ACL remnant cells and bone marrow ...

Autophagy Plays a Suppressive Role in Bladder Tumor Formation in an Orthotopic Mouse Model and Bladder Cancer Patient Specimens

open access: yesThe Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Autophagy plays either a suppressing or promoting role during tumor development. Clarifying the role of autophagy in bladder tumorigenesis both in vitro and in vivo is crucial for developing novel therapeutic strategies through manipulating autophagy activity.

Small molecule-based drug design of anticancer agents that target protein kinase B/ AKT, Bcl-xL and DNA methyltransferases for the treatment of prostate cancer

open access: yes, 2016
Prostate cancer is the most common form of cancer in men and the second leading cause of cancer-related deaths in the United States. So far, several mechanisms have been identified by which androgen-independent prostate cancer can develop, including ...

Amyloid Fibrils Formed by the Programmed Cell Death Regulator Bcl-xL.: Amyloid Fibrils from Bcl-xL

open access: yes, 2011
International audienceThe accumulation of amyloid fibers due to protein misfolding is associated with numerous human diseases. For example, the formation of amyloid deposits in neurodegenerative pathologies is correlated with abnormal apoptosis.

BCL-XL and MCL-1 are the key BCL-2 family proteins in melanoma cell survival [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Malignant melanoma is one of the most difficult cancers to treat due to its resistance to chemotherapy. Despite recent successes with BRAF inhibitors and immune checkpoint inhibitors, many patients do not respond or become resistant to these drugs. Hence,

Histiocytosis development and clinical variation through the lens of genomics

open access: yesThe Journal of Pathology, EarlyView.
Abstract Histiocytic neoplasms are rare haematologic diseases characterised by clonal expansions of cells with a monocyte, macrophage or dendritic cell phenotype. Their clinical manifestations are diverse, ranging from indolent lesions to aggressive systemic disease.
