Advances in research on the impact and mechanisms of pathogenic microorganism infections on pyroptosis

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology
Pyroptosis, also known as inflammatory necrosis, is a form of programmed cell death characterized by the activation of gasdermin proteins, leading to the formation of pores in the cell membrane, continuous cell swelling, and eventual membrane rupture ...

Anti-Tumor Activity of Atractylenolide I in Human Colon Adenocarcinoma In Vitro

open access: yesMolecules, 2020
Atractylodes macrocephala is known to exhibit multi-arrays of biologic activity in vitro. However, detail of its anti-tumor activity is lacking. In this study, the effects of atractylenolide I (AT-I), a bio-active compound present in Atractylodes ...

Identification of caspase 3 motifs and critical aspartate residues in human Phospholipase D1b and Phopsholipase D2a [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Stimulation of mammalian cells frequently initiates phospholipase D-catalysed hydrolysis of phosphatidylcholine in the plasma membrane to yield phosphatidic acid (PA) a novel lipid messenger.

The marine toxin, Yessotoxin, induces apoptosis and increases mitochondrial activity

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2014
: Yessotoxin (YTX) group are phycotoxins produced by different species of dinoflagellates. YTX activates the Phosphodiesterases (PDEs). This group of toxins can be consumed by humans, however no intoxication events are reported.

Angiotensin II Receptor Blocker Irbesartan Enhanced SIRT1 longevity Signaling Replaces the Mitochondrial Biogenetic Survival Pathway to Attenuate Hypertension-Induced Heart Apoptosis

open access: yesJournal of Cardiovascular Development and Disease, 2022
Background: The present study investigated whether angiotensin II type 1 receptor blocker irbesartan (ARB) and partial agonist of PPAR-γ prevents heart apoptosis by suppressing cardiac Fas/FasL-mediated to mitochondria-mediated apoptosis in the hearts of
