Caspase-9, caspase-3 and caspase-7 have distinct roles during intrinsic apoptosis [PDF]

BMC Cell Biology, 2013
AbstractBackgroundApoptosis is a form of programmed cell death that is regulated by the Bcl-2 family and caspase family of proteins. The caspase cascade responsible for executing cell death following cytochromecrelease is well described; however the distinct roles of caspases-9, -3 and -7 during this process are not completely defined.ResultsHere we ...

Engineered extracellular vesicles enriched with the miR‐214/199a cluster enhance the efficacy of chemotherapy in ovarian cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Loss of the miR‐214/199a cluster is associated with recurrence in ovarian cancer. Engineered small extracellular vesicles (m214‐sEVs) elevate miR‐214‐3p/miR‐199a‐5p in tumor cells, suppress β‐catenin, TLR4, and YKT6 signaling, reprogram tumor‐derived sEV cargo, reduce chemoresistance and migration, and enhance carboplatin efficacy and survival in ...

The expression of caspase-3, caspase-7, caspase-9 and cytokeratin AE1/AE3 in goats with enzootic nasal adenocarcinoma: an immunohistochemical study

Veterinární Medicína, 2013
The aim of this study was to examine the expression of caspase-3, caspase-7, caspase-9 and cytokeratin AE-1/AE-3 using the avidin-biotin complex (ABC) immunoperoxidase technique in 20 goats with enzootic nasal adenocarcinoma (ENA).

IMPDH inhibition enhances cytarabine efficacy in SAMHD1‐expressing leukaemia cells via guanine nucleotide depletion

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Cytarabine is a key therapy for acute myeloid leukaemia (AML), but its efficacy is limited by the dNTPase SAMHD1, which hydrolyses its active metabolite. Screening nucleotide biosynthesis inhibitors revealed that IMPDH inhibitors selectively sensitise SAMHD1‐proficient AML cells to cytarabine.

Chicken GSDME, a major pore-forming molecule responsible for RNA virus-induced pyroptosis in chicken

Journal of Virology
Pyroptosis is an inflammatory type of programmed cell death that mainly depends on the formation of plasma membrane pores by Gasdermin D (GSDMD) in mammals. However, the genetic deficiency of GSDMD in chicken renders avian pyroptosis elusive.

Bcl-xL overexpression decreases GILZ levels and inhibits glucocorticoid-induced activation of caspase-8 and caspase-3 in mouse thymocytes

Journal of Translational Autoimmunity, 2020
Glucocorticoids promote thymocyte apoptosis and modulate transcription of numerous regulators of thymic apoptosis. Among these, glucocorticoid-induced leucine zipper (GILZ) is strongly upregulated in the thymus.

Dual PI3K/AKT and CDK4/6 inhibition reveals selective sensitivity in an SHH medulloblastoma stem cell model

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Targeted therapy was evaluated in SHH medulloblastoma using neuroepithelial stem cell (NES) and tumor‐derived NES‐like (tNES) models in 2D monolayers and 3D spheroids. PI3K, AKT, and CDK4/6 inhibitors had minimal effects in NES but markedly reduced viability and growth and induced apoptosis in tNES cells, revealing distinct therapeutic vulnerabilities.

Active caspase-3 is removed from cells by release of caspase-3-enriched vesicles

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Molecular Cell Research, 2013
Cleavage of Rho associated Coiled Coil kinase I (ROCK I) by caspase-3 contributes to membrane blebbing. Whether caspase-3 and ROCK I also play a role in the release of membrane vesicles is unknown. Therefore, we transfected a human breast cancer cell line (MCF-7) that is caspase-3 deficient, lacks membrane blebbing, and does not release membrane ...

Regulation of the Apaf-1/Caspase-9 Apoptosome by Caspase-3 and XIAP [PDF]

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2003
The apoptosome is a multiprotein complex comprising Apaf-1, cytochrome c, and caspase-9 that functions to activate caspase-3 downstream of mitochondria in response to apoptotic signals. Binding of cytochrome c and dATP to Apaf-1 in the cytosol leads to the assembly of a heptameric complex in which each Apaf-1 subunit is bound noncovalently to a ...

CCDC80 suppresses high‐grade serous ovarian cancer migration via negative regulation of B7‐H3

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
PAX8 is a lineage‐specific master regulator of transcription in high‐grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSC) progression. We show for the first time that PAX8 facilitates proliferation and metastasis by repressing the cell autonomous tumor suppressor CCDC80 and inducing B7‐H3 expression.
