Regulation of the lncRNA NEAT1 by p53‐ΔNp63 crosstalk modulates the DNA damage response and therapeutic efficacy in HNSCC

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
In head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) p53 and p63 exert opposite roles on the transcription regulation of the lncRNA NEAT1. Under basal conditions, p53 levels are low and p63 represses NEAT1 expression. Upon genotoxic stress, p53 is rapidly induced, displacing p63 from the NEAT1 promoter leading to NEAT1 transcriptional activation and ...

Caspase-5: Structure, Pro-Inflammatory Activity and Evolution

Biomolecules
Caspase-5 is a protease that induces inflammation in response to lipopolysaccharide (LPS), a component of the cell envelope of Gram-negative bacteria. The expression level of the CASP5 gene is very low in the basal state, but strongly increases in the ...

THE ROLE OF INFLAMMASOME AND CASPASE-1 IN REGULATING ADAPTIVE RESPONSE TO OXIDATIVE STRESS IN MOUSE HEPATOCYTES [PDF]

, 2013
In myeloid cells, oxidative stress can induce the activation of caspase-1 through canonical inflammasome signaling, which leads to the release of proinflammatory cytokines IL-1β/IL-18 and a potentially damaging inflammatory response.

SfDredd directly cleaved Sf-caspase-1 in vitro.

, 2016
(A) Sf-caspase-1-C178A (300 nmol/L) was incubated with 300 nmol/L of C-terminally His-tagged SfDredd, SfDredd-C443A or SfDronc at 37°C for 1 h in Na-Citrate buffer and then subjected to immunoblotting using an antibody against Sf-caspase-1.

Caspase inhibitors affect the kinetics and dimensions of tracheary elements in xylogenic Zinnia (Zinnia elegans) cell cultures [PDF]

, 2010
Background The xylem vascular system is composed of fused dead, hollow cells called tracheary elements (TEs) that originate through trans-differentiation of root and shoot cambium cells. TEs undergo autolysis as they differentiate and mature.

Caspase Activation by Anticancer Drugs:  The Caspase Storm

Molecular Pharmaceutics, 2007
This study measures the time-dependence of cellular caspase activation by anticancer drugs and compares it with that of cellular respiration. Intracellular caspase activation and cellular respiration were measured during continuous exposure of Jurkat, HL-60, and HL-60/MX2 (deficient in topoisomerase-II) cells to dactinomycin, doxorubicin, and the ...

SPHINX31 acts as a SRPK1 inhibitor targeting the ATR/DNA‐PKcs/CHK1 replicative checkpoint to inhibit cell growth in non‐small cell lung cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
The kinase SRPK1 directly interacts with the protein TOPBP1 and regulates the pre‐mRNA splicing of WIZ thereby contributing to the activation of the ATR/CHK1 replicative checkpoint in response to replicative stress. This allows cancer cells' genomic stability and survival.

SfDredd cleaved Sf-caspase-1 when transfected in Sf9 cells.

, 2016
Plasmids expressing FLAG-tagged SfDredd and HA-tagged Sf-caspase-1 were co-transfected into Sf9 cells. Mock treated cells, GFP expressed Sf9 cells, and, GFP and Sf-caspase-1 co-expressed Sf9 cells were used as controls.
