Histopathological Evidence of Neurodegenerative Pathology in Epilepsy: A Systematic Review

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Epilepsy affects > 50 million people worldwide and is associated with a disproportionate burden of cognitive impairment. Emerging evidence suggests that neurodegenerative proteinopathies, particularly hyperphosphorylated tau (p‐tau) and amyloid‐β (Aβ), may contribute to cognitive dysfunction in people with epilepsy (PWE), even in the absence ...

Berberine induces caspase-independent cell death in colon tumor cells through activation of apoptosis-inducing factor [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Berberine, an isoquinoline alkaloid derived from plants, is a traditional medicine for treating bacterial diarrhea and intestinal parasite infections. Although berberine has recently been shown to suppress growth of several tumor cell lines, information ...

A study to investigate the anticancer potential of carvacrol via targeting Notch signaling in breast cancer

open access: yesOpen Chemistry
Breast cancer (BC) continues to be a primary worldwide health concern despite the tremendous efforts made to deploy novel chemotherapeutic techniques for the treatment of BC. It is, therefore, essential to elucidate better plant-based compounds targeting

Propofol directly induces caspase-1-dependent macrophage pyroptosis through the NLRP3-ASC inflammasome

open access: yesCell Death and Disease, 2019
Propofol infusion syndrome (PRIS) is an uncommon life-threatening complication observed most often in patients receiving high-dose propofol. High-dose propofol treatment with a prolonged duration can damage the immune system.

Interstitium‐Mimicking Porous Alveolar Membranes Enable Physiologic Aerosol Transport and Distinct Acute‐Chronic Lung Injury Responses

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
An interstitium‐mimicking membrane combines three‐dimensional alveolar geometry, high pore interconnectivity, and mechanical compliance to overcome transport limitations of conventional lung‐on‐chip barriers. The resulting platform supports physiologic aerosol transport, quantitative analysis of cross‐barrier particle movement, and reveals divergent ...

A Combinatorial Approach Defines Specificities of Members of the Caspase Family and Granzyme B

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 1997
There is compelling evidence that members of the caspase (interleukin-1β converting enzyme/CED-3) family of cysteine proteases and the cytotoxic lymphocyte-derived serine protease granzyme B play essential roles in mammalian apoptosis.

Three‐Dimensional Biomimetic Aerogel Conduits with Electro‐Ionic‐Immune Coupling Reverse the Pathological Cascade of Spinal Cord Injury

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A biomimetic aerogel conduit was engineered from a nanofiber of gelatin/poly(l‐lactic acid) doped with polypyrrole nanoparticles, integrated with tannic acid and Mg2+. This “electro‐ionic‐immune” strategy mimicked spinal cord properties, reduced calcium overload, inflammation, oxidative damage, promoted neural stem cell differentiation, suppressed ...

FG020326 Sensitized Multidrug Resistant Cancer Cells to Docetaxel-Mediated Apoptosis via Enhancement of Caspases Activation

open access: yesMolecules, 2012
Apoptotic resistance is the main obstacle for treating cancer patients with chemotherapeutic drugs. Multidrug resistance (MDR) is often characterized by the expression of P-glycoprotein (P-gp), a 170-KD ATP-dependent drug efflux protein.

The Inflammasome: A Caspase-1 Activation Platform Regulating Immune Responses and Disease Pathogenesis

open access: yesNature Immunology, 2009
The inflammasome is a multiprotein complex that mediates the activation of caspase-1, which promotes secretion of the proinflammatory cytokines interleukin 1β (IL-1β) and IL-18, as well as 'pyroptosis', a form of cell death induced by bacterial pathogens.
