The roles of apoptosis, autophagy and unfolded protein response in arbovirus, influenza virus, and HIV infections

Virulence, 2019
Virus infection induces different cellular responses in infected cells. These include cellular stress responses like autophagy and unfolded protein response (UPR).

The Barley Apoptosis Suppressor Homologue Bax Inhibitor-1 Compromises Nonhost Penetration Resistance of Barley to the Inappropriate Pathogen Blumeria graminis f. sp. tritici

Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2004
BAX inhibitor-1 (BI-1) proteins have been characterized as suppressors of programmed cell death in mammals and plants. The barley BI-1 is a suppressor of nonspecific background resistance and mlo-mediated penetration resistance to the biotrophic fungal ...

Caspase-3 Is Required for DNA Fragmentation and Morphological Changes Associated with Apoptosis*

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 1998
Interleukin 1β-converting enzyme-like proteases (caspases) are crucial components of cell death pathways. Among the caspases identified, caspase-3 stands out because it is commonly activated by numerous death signals and cleaves a variety of important ...

Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...

Defining Characteristics of Types I and II Apoptotic Cells in Response to TRAIL

Neoplasia: An International Journal for Oncology Research, 2002
Type I cells have been defined to be independent of mitochondria for the induction of Fas death receptormediated apoptosis, whereas Type II cells are mitochondria-dependent.

Lactoferrin treatment activates acetylcholinesterase, decreasing acetylcholine levels in non‐small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cell culture supernatants, inhibiting cell survival

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Representation of the suggested mode of action of lactoferrin (Lf) in nonsmall cell lung cancer (NSCLC) A549 cells. Lf induces activation of caspase‐3 by activating p53 and AChE leading to decreased ACh concentrations. In turn, ACh signaling leads to activation of VEGF and AKT and blocking of caspase‐3.

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

Cell 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.

Long‐term culture of skin biopsies: maintenance of fibroblast production and competency of reprogramming

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Skin biopsies taken from a patient with an ultra‐rare disorder as well as controls were cultured for up to 473 days. The chunks of skin were serially transferred to a new culture plate when confluent with fibroblasts. Different generations of fibroblasts were analyzed for cell and molecular properties, proliferation, and competence for reprogramming to

Ordering the Cytochrome c–initiated Caspase Cascade: Hierarchical Activation of Caspases-2, -3, -6, -7, -8, and -10 in a Caspase-9–dependent Manner

Journal of Cell Biology, 1999
Exit of cytochrome c from mitochondria into the cytosol has been implicated as an important step in apoptosis. In the cytosol, cytochrome c binds to the CED-4 homologue, Apaf-1, thereby triggering Apaf-1–mediated activation of caspase-9.
