The decision phase of apoptosis is mainly regulated by the Bcl-2 family, which renders these proteins potential targets for cancer therapy through apoptotic mechanisms. Bcl2 family members have homology clustered within four conserved Bcl2 homology (BH) domains (BH1, BH2, BH3 and BH4). Only the antiapoptotic proteins, such as Bcl2, Bcl-XL, Bcl-w and A1,

Bcl2 inhibition of mitochondrial DNA repair [PDF]
Accumulation of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) damage could enhance the frequency of mitochondrial mutations and promote a variety of mitochondria-related diseases, including cancer. However, the mechanism(s) involved are not fully understood.Quantitative extended length PCR was used to compare mtDNA and nDNA damage in human lung H1299 cells expressing WT ...

Overexpression of microRNA-16 declines cellular growth, proliferation and induces apoptosis in human breast cancer cells [PDF]
MicroRNAs (miRNA) are a large family of small single-stranded RNA molecules found in all multicellular organisms. Early studies have been shown that miRNA are involved in cancer development and progression, and this role can be done by working as an ...

Detection of BCL2 Rearrangements in Follicular Lymphoma [PDF]
The identification and characterization of recurrent chromosomal translocations has improved tumor classification and yielded numerous insights into tumor pathogenesis, as such events typically lead to the dysregulation of proteins that control critical cellular processes, such as apoptosis, proliferation, differentiation, and immortalization.
