Isoflavone Attenuates the Caspase-1 and Caspase-3 Level in Cell Model of Parkinsonism [PDF]

open access: yesBehavioural Neurology, 2015
The study has investigated the effect of isoflavone attenuates the caspase-1 and caspase-3 level in cell model of Parkinsonism. The subjects were PC12 cells. They were randomly divided into six groups: control, MPP+(250 μmol/L), isoflavone (10 μM), isoflavone (10 μM) + MPP+(250 μmol/L), Z-YVAD-CHO (10 nM) + MPP+group, and Z-DEVD-CHO (10 nM) + MPP+group.

Long non‐coding RNAs as therapeutic targets in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma and clinical application

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Long non‐coding RNAs (lncRNAs) occupy an abundant fraction of the eukaryotic transcriptome and an emerging area in cancer research. Regulation by lncRNAs is based on their subcellular localization in HNSCC. This cartoon shows the various functions of lncRNAs in HNSCC discussed in this review.

Monte Carlo study elucidates the type 1/type 2 choice in apoptotic death signaling in normal and cancer cells [PDF]

open access: yesCells 2013 2:361-392, 2013
Apoptotic cell death is coordinated through two distinct (type 1 and type 2) intracellular signaling pathways. How the type 1/type 2 choice is made remains a fundamental problem in the biology of apoptosis and has implications for apoptosis related diseases and therapy.

Structural Basis for the Inhibition of Caspase-3 by XIAP [PDF]

open access: yesCell, 2001
The molecular mechanism(s) that regulate apoptosis by caspase inhibition remain poorly understood. The main endogenous inhibitors are members of the IAP family and are exemplified by XIAP, which regulates the initiator caspase-9, and the executioner caspases-3 and -7.

Optimizing Angiopep‐2 Density on Polymeric Nanoparticles for Enhanced Blood–Brain Barrier Penetration and Glioblastoma Targeting: Insights From In Vitro and In Vivo Experiments

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The Angiopep‐2 peptide density on polymeric nanoparticles significantly impacts blood–brain barrier (BBB) penetration. This study explores this nuanced relationship using various in vitro models and in vivo assays, revealing that dynamic models better predict BBB penetration.

Modeling the effects of HIV-1 virions and proteins on Fas-induced apoptosis of infected cells [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2007
We report a first in modeling and simulation of the effects of the HIV proteins on the (caspase dependent) apoptotic pathway in infected cells. This work is novel and is an extension on the recent reports and clarifications on the FAS apoptotic pathway from the literature.

A pathway of signals regulating effector and initiator caspases in the developing Drosophila eye [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Regulated cell death and survival play important roles in neural development. Extracellular signals are presumed to regulate seven apparent caspases to determine the final structure of the nervous system.

ABT-737 promotes tBid mitochondrial accumulation to enhance TRAIL-induced apoptosis in glioblastoma cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
To search for novel strategies to enhance the tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL)-induced apoptosis pathways in glioblastoma, we used the B-cell lymphoma 2/Bcl2-like 2-inhibitor ABT-737.

Engineering Novel DNA Nanoarchitectures for Targeted Drug Delivery and Aptamer Mediated Apoptosis in Cancer Therapeutics

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Designer DNA Architecture‐templated Drug Conjugates (DDA‐DCs) are comprised of a DNA nanomaterial decorated with multiple drug‐loaded DNA aptamers. DDA‐DCs use a combination of multiple aptamer types, each recognizing a different membrane protein to achieve precise targeting of cancer cells.

Density-based modeling and identification of biochemical networks in cell populations [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2010
In many biological processes heterogeneity within cell populations is an important issue. In this work we consider populations where the behavior of every single cell can be described by a system of ordinary differential equations. Heterogeneity among individual cells is accounted for by differences in parameter values and initial conditions.
